    <Paragraph position="0"> Many thanks are owed to Ken Church and Robert Dale, ACL'99 Program Committee co-Chairs, the ACL'99 area chairs, and the participating reviewers and authors for their essential support of this project. It is hoped that insights gained in this feasibility study will be useful for future program chairs deciding if, where and how to utilize automatic routing strategies in support of their committee and reviewer assignment tasks. This research was partially supported by the National Science Foundation grant IRI-9618874.</Paragraph>
