I submitted the first version of the P paper to Hal via email, before the deadline, but he then told me (shortly after the deadline) to instead upload it to the new isocpp.org submission system.

I then uploaded the second (and current) version of the P paper to that system. After the deadline. That last version is the one in the system now.

So I see two options:

a) we all forget the earlier version ever existed - it only ever existed as an email attachment anyway, or:

b) please tell me exactly how to unravel all
this in some other way?

Cheers,
Timur
