The committee email list address is: acl16cc@aclweb.org . The committee membership needs to be updated for the changes in Exec membership.
Progress
The domain name http://acl2016.org/ has been reserved (but not yet populated).
The call for bids was first distributed in summer 2013 and the final call for bids was distributed in December 2013. The deadline for the notification to submit proposals was January 15, 2014. By this date, we had received 4 notifications of intention to submit a bid:
- Humboldt University, Berlin, Germany (Valia Kordoni <evangelia.kordoni@anglistik.hu-berlin.de> and Markus Egg)
- TU Darmstadt, Germany ("Prof. Dr. Iryna Gurevych" <gurevych@ukp.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de> and Michael Matuschek <matuschek@ukp.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de>)
- Yandex, either Moscow or St. Petersburg, Russia (Alexey Baytin <baytin@yandex-team.ru>, Pavel Serdyukov <pavser@yandex-team.ru>, Irina Galinskaya <galinskaya@yandex-team.ru>)
- New York University, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates (Nizar Habash <habash@ccls.columbia.edu>)
and one other site was still considering whether to submit a bid (DFKI/Uni. Saarbrücken, Saarbrücken, Germany).
Since that date, the intent to bid by New York University, Abu Dhabi has been withdrawn. Nevertheless, overall, the hope is that we are in a good position to have multiple competitive bids. The next steps in the schedule (coming up soon!) are:
- March 1, 2014 - Draft proposals due
- Through March, 2014 - Feedback to bidders
- Apr 15, 2014 - Final bids due
- May 15, 2014 - Bid selected
- Second half of May - get selected bidder to set up rudimentary website
- Winning bid announced at ACL 2014 in Baltimore
- Discuss selection of general chair at ACL 2014
