Editorial
This is the second issue of CP News for 2014.
As always, we have the latest updates from the ACP Executive Committee. There are a few close deadlines in the report, such as May 12 for proposing tutorials for CP 2014, May 18 for community input to the new Strategic Committee, and May 25 for applications to this year's summer school.
One item we would like to emphasise in particular is the upcoming election to the ACP Executive Committee. Details can be found in the call for nominations.
Another thing we'd like to advertise here is the new ACP YouTube Channel. As mentioned in the ACP EC report, you can find many of the plenary talks from CP 2013 there.
Finally, this newsletter contains the second article in our series on classic papers with impact.
Now that the paper deadline for CP has passed (and reviewing is almost done), we hope that you enjoy this update. If you would like to contribute to the next edition of the newsletter, please let us know!
