[ORGA-SEMANTiCS-2020-EU] DH special track review criteria

[Sabrina Kirrane]

Dear all,

We have already provided Tassilo with PC suggestions for the LegalTech
track, however I was wondering if we could possibly have separate
eaychair tracks for the LegalTech, Digital Humanities and Cultural
Heritage, and Blockchain subtopics with their own PCs?

Best Regards,
Sabrina
