What the papers/ directory is currently being used for: - Many of the entries in the papers database browsable on our web site link to PDFs in the papers/ subdirectory. - In a number of my own papers, I have provided URLs to subdirectories of the papers/ directory in order to host supplementary material. So I hope the papers/ subdirectory would not get moved in the future in a way that would break those URLs. The subdirectories I have used are TSAP-Adaptation, eurospeech05-onset, eurospeech05-vtln, gelbart-ms, icslp02-gabor, and sapa04-hemmert, along with the files asru01-meansub-*. Also, Marc Ferras used the multimic directory for supplementary material for his master's thesis. David Gelbart (August 2006)
