Castagna: A Handbook for PC Chairs

Giuseppe Castagna published a 12-page guide based on his experience chairing ECOOP 2013. It includes pithy advice such as the following.
As a side note, I suggest to send to PC members as few emails as possible and to repeat all important information in every mail: never assume that if you wrote something in a mail, then every member of the PC knows it (my personal experience was that many of the important pieces of information I wrote in my mails were missed by one ortwo members, not always the same ones).
Beppe's handbook is a useful addition to the literature on how to run a conference, including several written by members of SIGPLAN.
