Hi,
Since provenance was mentioned several times at NETTAB (and not only by me :) I thought I'd pass along this workshop announcement. I'm sure that submissions describing provenance techniques or requirements in biological wikis would be in scope.

3rd USENIX Workshop on the Theory and Practice of Provenance (TaPP '11)
http://www.usenix.org/events/tapp11/
June 20-22, 2011
Heraklion, Crete, Greece
Sponsored by USENIX
** Overview
With the deluge of digital data we are currently experiencing, it has become increasingly important to capture and understand the provenance of data. Provenance provides important documentation that is an essential part of the quality of data, and it is essential to the trust we put in, for example, the data we find on the Web and the data that is derived from scientific experiments.
The meeting is in Crete, the week after the Athens meeting of ACM SIGMOD (http://www.sigmod2011.org/index.shtml). Crete is a spectacular island with great beaches, scenery, and food.
** Topics and What to Submit
Submissions are solicited on any topic related to theoretical or practical aspects of provenance, including but not limited to: provenance in databases, workflows, programming languages, security, software engineering, or systems; provenance on the Web; or real-world applications of or requirements for provenance. The program committee very much wants to make this a workshop rather than a mini-conference. Therefore, in addition to papers describing original research, the committee welcomes any proposal that will make the workshop interactive and promote discussions, especially discussions across disciplines.
** The following are possible submissions:
* Short papers and vision papers describing challenges for provenance research and novel applications (4 pages maximum)
* Proposals for mini-tutorials on some aspect of provenance (4 pages maximum)
* Regular submissions describing original research (8 pages maximum)
* Other proposals (e.g., for panels or small discussion groups)
Besides regular presentations, we plan to hold a poster session where authors of accepted submissions will have the opportunity to discuss their work with the other workshop participants.
* Important Dates
* Submissions due: April 8, 2011, 11:59 p.m. PDT
* Notification to authors: May 9, 2011
* Final paper files due: May 23, 2011
** How to Submit
Submissions will be received electronically via a Web form, which will be available here soon. The Web form will ask for contact information for the paper and will allow for the submission of your full paper file in PDF format. Please do not email submissions.
Papers should be formatted in two columns, using 10 point Times Roman type on 12 point leading, in a text block of 6.5" by 9". If you wish, you may use the LaTeX template found at http://www.usenix.org/events/samples/template.la and style file found at http://www.usenix.org/events/samples/usenix.sty or the RTF template found athttp://www.usenix.org/events/samples/sample.rtf
Simultaneous submission of the same work to multiple venues, submission of previously published work, or plagiarism constitutes dishonesty or fraud. USENIX, like other scientific and technical conferences and journals, prohibits these practices and may take action against authors who have committed them. See the USENIX Conference Submissions Policy at http://www.usenix.org/events/submissionspolicy.html for details.
