I'm quite sure that one of the articles published is the paper presented by a young bloke at Tolkien 2005 - "Satan and The Silmarillion: John Milton’s Angelic Decline in J.R.R. Tolkien’s Melkor" by Zachary Watkins. I might have to dig out the event programme and verify this.
The more Tolkien articles online the better for me, as even though some might be a little 'out there', some of those are the very essays that are the most challenging. And of course, it does give you something to read at work which looks 'worklike'
EDIT:
D'oh!

Zach Watkins is a proud English major at the University of New Mexico and is scheduled to present his paper on the Miltonic Satan in Tolkien’s The Silmarillion at the Tolkien 2005 Conference in Birmingham, England. Besides harboring a pipedream of becoming a rock star, Zach loves the work of Kurt Vonnegut, Jr., the Star Wars films, peanut M&M’s, and dressing like a true native of the Shire.
