ACL 2012 planning report (organizing committee chair: Kevin Knight)

The ACL 2012 organizing committee consists of eleven members, including members of the ACL executive committee and members nominated by AFNLP.  The committee received several bids to host ACL 2012, so the committee was temporarily re-organized to avoid conflicts of interest.  The committee completed an initial round of analyzing bids, and a final selection is to be made by June 28, 2010.

We have also contacted organizers of related 2012 conferences and workshops in order to avoid conflicting dates as much as possible, and to investigate co-location possibilities:

=== ACL
- receives bids by 3/15/2010, makes decision by 6/28/2010.
- conference must be held in Asia-Pacific in June, July, or August of 2012.

=== European ACL
- will take place in Avignon, France, from April 23 to April 27, 2012
