<br>
Thank you for your continued help throughout this process.<br>
<br>
TAPS Support has completed the proof generation for both papers
below, with the co-author email addresses suppressed as we had
requested:<br>
- Paper #11 (hotstorage26-3): The Host Is Not Idle:
Computational SSDs for Host-Free Checkpointing in Multimodal LLM
Training<br>
- Paper #23 (hotstorage26-4): GraceSSD: Per-File Reliability
Hints for Error-Tolerant Machine Learning Storage<br>
<br>
We have reviewed the corrected proofs and approved the final
version for both papers in TAPS.<br>
<br>
Please let us know if anything further is needed from our side.
Otherwise, thank you again for your patience and support.</font></p>

style="font-family:"Malgun Gothic",sans-serif">Dear
Chenhao and Duo,<br>
<br>
Thank you for the update regarding the 75% TAPS status.<br>
<br>
We would like to explain why we have not yet given the final
author approval.<br>
Both papers now compile correctly in TAPS, so processing
itself is no longer the issue. However, the generated proofs
still display every co-author's email address on the title
page, which conflicts with our institution's policy of not
disclosing individual author email addresses (except the
corresponding author's).<br>
<br>
We have therefore requested TAPS Support to suppress the
co-author email addresses from the published PDF and HTML
outputs. TAPS has agreed to apply this change on their side,
but it has not yet been reflected in the current proofs. For
this reason, we are intentionally holding off on approving
the final version until the corrected proof is generated.<br>
<br>
As soon as TAPS completes this correction and the proof
renders as intended, we will approve both papers immediately
so that the proceedings are not delayed. We will keep you
posted on the progress, and please let us know if anything
further is needed from our side in the meantime.<br>
<br>
Thank you again for your patience and continued support.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="ms-outlook-mobile-reference-message"><span
style="font-size:18.0pt">Dear Duo and Chenhao,<br>
<br>
Thank you for the follow-up. We have just completed
the eRights forms again for both papers:<br>
- Paper #11 (hotstorage26-3): The Host Is Not Idle:
Computational SSDs for Host-Free Checkpointing in
Multimodal LLM Training<br>
- Paper #23 (hotstorage26-4): GraceSSD: Per-File
Reliability Hints for Error-Tolerant Machine
Learning Storage<br>
<br>
As the TAPS staff mentioned, we have reset the
eRights forms to resolve the following issue:<br>
During the TAPS submission process, we found that
the author email addresses were automatically
populated from the eRights form into the final
generated paper, which conflicts with our
institution's policy of not disclosing the authors'
email addresses (except the corresponding author's).<br>
TAPS Support initially advised us to reset the
eRights form and re-submit it without the email
addresses. However, after contacting ACM, we
confirmed that the email addresses are a mandatory
field, so TAPS Support has instead agreed to hide
the co-author email addresses on their side after
the final submission is processed.<br>
<br>
Now that we have finished the eRights forms, we will
upload the LaTeX sources for both papers as soon as
the TAPS links arrive.<br>
We would be grateful if you could forward us the
submission link whenever it becomes available.<br>
Also, please note that TAPS may need some additional
time after the submission to apply the email-hiding
change.<br>
<br>
Thank you again for your continued support.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="font-claude-response-body">Dear Chenhao
and Duo,<br>
I am Seungkwan Kang, the submitting author of
Paper #11, "The Host Is Not Idle: Computational
SSDs for Host-Free Checkpointing in Multimodal LLM
Training," and Paper #23, "GraceSSD: Per-File
Reliability Hints for Error-Tolerant Machine
Learning Storage". (hotstorage26-3, and
hotstorage26-4, respectively)<br>
<br>
After we completed the TAPS submissions for both
papers, they were moved to "TAPS Support" status
on 8/14 due to conversion errors. We have examined
both flagged issues and believe they are false
positives:<o:p></o:p></p>
<ol style="margin-top:0in" start="1" type="1">

command is defined in the official acmart
template and is used as-is in the sample LaTeX

<li class="MsoNormal"

"listings" package, which is on the TAPS
accepted package list.<o:p></o:p></li>

contacted TAPS Support (<a

moz-do-not-send="true"

with the details above, asking them to review both
submissions and resume processing, and we are
ready to make adjustments if any genuinely
unsupported construct is identified.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="font-claude-response-body">We are
reporting this per the camera-ready instructions
so that you are aware both papers are currently
held at TAPS Support rather than pending action on

HotStorage’26 Camera-Ready Instructions</span><o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt">Dear authors,<br>
<br>
Congratulations again on the acceptance of
your paper to HotStorage’26!<br>
Please follow the instructions below when
preparing your camera-ready<br>
submission. *We highly recommend
completing the eRights Form (action #2)<br>
as soon as possible, as it takes time for
ACM Digital Library to process<br>
it before you can submit the final paper.*<br>
<br>
The camera-ready deadline is **Wednesday,
August 12, 2026, Anywhere on<br>
Earth (AoE)**.<br>
<br>
1. Format the paper properly<br>
<br>
- Template: Please prepare your final
paper using the latest ACM<br>
template version 2.19 with 10pt font
(i.e., your LaTeX file should use<br>
`\documentclass[sigconf,10pt]{acmart}`).
You can download the template<br>
from<br>
</span><a
href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.hotstorage.org/2026/files/hotstorage2026_paper_template.zip__;!!Mak6IKo!PHrCGSVyiaOrXwHvXK4VafusEBLGOLuQEN978oX_Qt2xYIOyaZfHw09FCZ2UAOmBgGEmejSQGl_tQ19emHpdRIN3p0VaP1g$"
moz-do-not-send="true"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt">https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.hotstorage.org/2026/files/hotstorage2026_paper_template.zip__;!!Mak6IKo!PHrCGSVyiaOrXwHvXK4VafusEBLGOLuQEN978oX_Qt2xYIOyaZfHw09FCZ2UAOmBgGEmejSQGl_tQ19emHpdRIN3p0VaP1g$</span></a><span
style="font-size:11.0pt"> <br>
. We apologize that previously the
HotStorage’26 Call for Papers pointed<br>
to an older version of the ACM template.
If you used that version for<br>
your original submission, please update
your camera-ready paper to<br>
version 2.19.<br>
<br>
- Title: The camera-ready paper title
should contain only the paper’s<br>
actual title. Please do not include the
submission type, such as<br>
"Regular" or "Position," in the
camera-ready version.<br>
<br>
- Page limit: You can add one additional
page to the camera-ready paper.<br>
<br>
- Metadata: Make sure to include the
proper CCS Concepts, Keywords, and<br>
copyright information (see #2 below).<br>
<br>
<br>
2. Complete ACM eRights Form<br>
<br>
The authors should have received ACM
eRights forms from a separate<br>
email. Please complete this form promptly
and carefully; the title,<br>
author names, affiliations, and other
metadata entered in eRights should<br>
be accurate and consistent with the
camera-ready version. If you have<br>
not received this email, please let us
know. *Authors whose forms are<br>
pending will be unable to upload their
final papers.*<br>
<br>
The eRights form will require the ORCID of
all authors. Authors who do<br>
not already have one should register at
<a href="https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2fORCID.org&c=E,1,nNZ-EBSHadHeIV7DsPzrywbPzQZjJ8lrivFm6emgnQtzyQPLtdMmrua3VpDu-0_3ivmJaDFerKbjoBK6atMtaraJdMmehIQ_brsSLJ1ICk0a7azeNoA,&typo=1&ancr_add=1">ORCID.org</a> first.<br>
<br>
After completing the eRights forms, the
authors will be emailed the<br>
rights text (bibliographic strip, ISBN,
DOI, etc.). Authors must include<br>
this text in their paper.<br>
<br>
As rights management emails are sent from
an automated system, these may<br>
wind up in SPAM folders. Please make sure
the SPAM filter allows emails<br>
from </span><a
href="mailto:rightsreview@acm.org"
moz-do-not-send="true"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt">rightsreview@acm.org</span></a><span
style="font-size:11.0pt">.<br>
<br>
<br>
3. Submit the final version through TAPS<br>
<br>
Final papers will be processed through The
ACM Production System (TAPS).<br>
After authors complete their eRights
forms, they will receive a separate<br>
email from TAPS within 12 hours. The TAPS
email will contain<br>
instructions for uploading source,
supplementary, and auxiliary files<br>
for processing. Please keep an eye on the
emails from<br>
</span><a
