Dear Members of the Program Committee,

Thank you again for your reviews and discussions on the submitted paper. 
We discussed 10 papers during the PC meeting and accepted 5 of them, 3 
of which have shepherds assigned. The total number of accepted papers, 
including conditional accepts with shepherds, is 23, out of 79 
submitted.

We have a rushed timeline, but please participate in the following 
tasks. The author notification is July 24, AoE, so please log into 
HotCRP and perform these tasks in the next two days.

* Discussion summary
Discussion leads, please write a PC discussion summary, summarizing 
discussion points of the online discussion and PC meeting (if it was 
discussed in the meeting). Please add the summary as a comment with the 
visibility set as "Authors (eventually) and reviewers." This will become 
visible when we open up the reviews to the authors. After the comment is 
ready, please tag the paper #pc-summary-done.

* Review sufficiency
Discussion leads, please double-check all of the reviews for the paper.  
If a review claims the paper is lacking in novelty, the reviewer should 
be asked to provide a citation to the previous work for the authors to 
consider. If a review has serious typos or oddities, we would like to 
catch those issues before making the reviews visible to the authors. It 
is not necessary to spell-check the reviews, we simply want to catch 
anything embarrassing.

* Poster-only invites
Discussion leads, please tag papers as poster-only (#poster) if you find 
them to be promising and worthwhile to be discussed during the poster 
session.

Thank you for your contribution and dedication to the storage research 
community.

Sincerely,
Young-ri Choi and Bryan S. Kim
HotStorage 2026 Program Co-Chairs
