McTaggart and Presentism

I've been doing some research on McTaggart's Paradox and its relation to presentism.  Bill Craig thinks that the best response to McTaggart's Paradox is to endorse presentism.

Question 1: Which articles do people take to be the most clear, penetrating, and helpful discussions of McTaggart's Paradox?  I'd like to understand it better.

Question 2: I've read most of Craig's stuff on the topic relating McTaggart's Paradox to presentism.  Is anybody aware of other authors who have written on their relation?  Which articles would you recommend?

Time on Trial Conference Pictures

The conference on McTaggart's argument, "Time on Trial," was a big success I think. Pictures of the event are available at www.wvu.edu/~philosophy/timeontrial.html. We'll have video of the conference up there shortly. I'll have an update on the publication of the proceedings as soon as I have definite details.
