SUMMARY:
- There is a total of 19 SIGs <br\>
(including the new SIGSLAV, founded on 27-Nov-2014).
- According to the SIG creation guidelines, a SIG should hold elections <br\>
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: <br\>
SIGBioMed, SIGFSM, SIGLEX, SIGNLL, SIGPARSE, SIGSEM, SIGWAC. <br\> 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 <br\>
(Francis Tyers, Tommi Piranen).
