sosp-author-response
Use when drafting a SOSP author response during the pre-PC-meeting rebuttal window, keeping it within the venue's norms — correcting factual errors, answering direct reviewer questions, staying near the 500-word guidance, and never introducing new experiments, new data, or promises of future work.

# SOSP Author Response
Use this when SOSP reviews land and the response window opens. SOSP's response phase
has an unusually narrow charter, stated in the CFP (verified 2026-07-08 for the 2026
cycle): responses exist to **correct factual errors in the reviews** and to **answer
questions reviewers explicitly posed**. They must not add new experiments or data,
describe work done since submission, or promise follow-up work. Submitting a response
is optional, and while no hard cap is stated, authors are strongly encouraged to stay
**under 500 words**.
## What the response can and cannot do
The response is read by a program committee that will discuss the paper live at a PC
meeting. Its job is to remove false obstacles before that discussion, not to renegotiate
