SUMMARY:

  • There is a total of 19 SIGs

(including the new SIGSLAV, founded on 27-Nov-2014).

  • 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 seven SIGs that do not follow the two-year election pattern:
 SIGBioMed, SIGFSM, SIGLEX, SIGNLL, SIGPARSE, SIGSEM, SIGWAC.
 Apart from SIGLEX, all these SIGs have a three-year term in their
 constitution.
  • There is an ongoing activity to create a new SIG for Uralic languages
 (Francis Tyers, Tommi Piranen).
