Abstract submission with COD I would like to be able to let people submit abstracts with the Conference Organising Distribution. Is there a way already implemented? I did not see this. 

The idea would be that people can enter information about themselves, the abstract and upload the tex file and select the session/track that they want to present in. 

AND that we can approve the abstracts and add them to the schedule. 

Is there an easy way for this? Seems like a pretty (academic) conference requirement.

Thanks!
this question was cross-posted on drupal.org and it got an answer there.
it basically explains that session submission is meant for this.
