ACL SIGs: Report on Year 2015
Hermann Ney (last update: 08-Feb-2016)
Summary
• There is a total of 20 SIGs (including SIGSLAV, founded on 27-Nov-2014, and SIGUR, founded on 18-Aug-2015).
• The number of members reported below have been updated for the year 2015 in most cases.
• According to the SIG creation guidelines, a SIG should hold elections every two years, which is the case for the majority of the SIGs.
• There are nine SIGs that do not follow the two-year election pattern:
SIGANN, SIGBioMed, SIGFSM, SIGLEX, SIGMT, SIGNLL, SIGPARSE, SIGSEM, SIGWAC. Apart from SIGLEX and SIGANN, all these SIGs have a three-year term in their constitution. List of SIGs
