MakeJmlrBookGUI

Changes to the LaTeX kernel in 2020 have broken a class that jmlrbook relies on. This means that jmlrbook, and therefore MakeJmlrBookGUI are now obsolete because they can’t work with up-to-date TeX distributions. Production editors will need to set the first page number of each article manually with \firstpageno{N}. Please follow the PMLR Proceedings Specifications to create the bib file.

If you need to create a book containing all articles, consider using the pdfpages package. If you require assistance, there are consultants listed on TUG.

MakeJmlrBookGUI is a Java GUI provided to help editors build PMLR (Proceedings of Machine Learning Research) volumes (formerly JMLR Workshop and Conference Proceedings) or books in the CiML (Challenges in Machine Learning) series. This application is designed to only work with books using the LaTeX jmlrbook class that import papers using the jmlr class. See the jmlr documentation for further details on using those classes.

It is possible to compile all the PDFs manually and create the bib file yourself, without using this application, but if you do so you must follow the PMLR Proceedings Specification.
