Thanks for the update,

Summary description: Class for typesetting IEEE Computer Society Press 
  conference papers
License type: lppl

Announcement text given by the package's contributor:
- - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
The IEEEconf class implements the formatting dictated
by the IEEE Computer Society Press for conference
proceedings (http://www.computer.org/cspress/instruct.htm).
IEEEconf.cls replaces latex8.sty and latex8.bst.  The
goal was to produce a more faithful implementation of
the formatting rules and to do so with cleaner LaTeX
code than that provided by the latex8.* files.

This update (v1.2) improves the formatting of the
author blocks, laying them out in a more aesthetic
manner.
