Accepted papers and posters have been announced.  Seems like a different distribution of authors & affiliations this year — for example, two of the recently most productive authors, Bruce Croft and Tie-Yan Liu are not listed on any accepted papers this year.  Based on first-authorship, Yahoo! has 5 papers, Microsoft/MSR/LiveLabs have 12 and Google has 2, which collectively accounts for over 24% of the papers at the conference.  When considering any author affiliation, Y/M/G are on 38% of the papers.
