<div>Unfortunately, the link is not working for me … Our internal “safelink” is correctly translating the link into

https://hotstorage26.hotcrp.com/u/0/reviewprefs</a> . However, I get a “Page Inaccessible” error on the hotcrp page.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Second, it would be great if my review load could remain at the lower end of the initial spectrum. I already reviewed for FAST and I am currently reviewing for EuroSys and ATC, so that my review load is already very high and another unplanned increase
 in the number of reviews is very difficult to handle.</div>

<div>Thank you for your understanding and</div>
<div>Best regards,</div>

Dear HotStorage 2026 Program Committee,<br>
<br>
We received 79 submissions, a significant increase from last year.<br>
Although we had increased the size of the PC by 34% in anticipation, it<br>
seems that we would have to ask each PC member to expect reviewing<br>
approximately 8 papers, instead of the initially planned 4 to 6. We will<br>
try to make some last-minute arrangements to reduce the review load.<br>
<br>
Please submit your review preferences by Tuesday, June 16:<br>
