guidance for mismatching year

[siccegge]

Hi!

was trying to import FOCS21 but this conference curiously (well, ...) happend in 2022 (but there's also going to be FOCS22 of course)

is there a good way to map this in the cryptobib system?

Relatedly, there's proceedings like CRYPTO '93, where the date in year reflects when the proceedings came out (1994), but the month and dates reflect when the conference took place...

Another one of these is Latincrypt 2017 (LC17), of which the proceedings came out in 2019. Here, the month field also reflects the conference.

ah perfect, thanks for the pointers!

I found this entry in the dblp FAQ: https://dblp.org/faq/16154785.html

Asiacrypt 2022 is another one of these cases #197

Just to clarify, are we sticking with the year that the conference was held as the convention?
