==EACL 2014==<br />
Report by Stephen Clark<br />
<br />
The General Chair, Shuly Wintner, has provided a separate report. All<br />
I will add here, in general terms, is that Shuly did a fantastic job<br />
in overseeing the conference, as did the Program Chairs, Stefan<br />
Riezler and Sharon Goldwater, in preparing the program. The Local<br />
Chairs also deserve a lot of credit, and overall I would say that EACL<br />
2014 was a complete success.<br />
<br />
More specifically, one area that needs to be looked at before EACL<br />
2017 is the joint organisation of the workshops. EACL tends to suffer<br />
in the joint timetable, since it is always the earliest conference of<br />
the year, resulting in a very tight schedule for the EACL<br />
workshops. Lluís, the Chair-Elect, is in an excellent position to<br />
investigate this further since Lluís was the workshops co-chair for<br />
ACL this year.<br />
<br />
The call for bids for EACL 2017 is currently being prepared by the<br />
Chair-Elect, and the first call will be sent out in Autumn 2014.<br />

<br />
Five students were sponsored for EACL 2014, for up to 500 Euro each,<br />
in line with the EACL Sponsorship Policy. The five students were<br />
nominated by the EACL Student Research Workshop (SRW) Chairs, who<br />
oversaw the solicitation and selection process, and confirmed by the<br />
EACL Board.<br />
<br />
==EACL Web Pages==<br />
<br />
We are in the process of revamping the EACL web pages, to make them<br />
more up-to-date and maintainable. Alexander Koller and Douwe Kiela are<br />
heading this initiative. All the changes have been agreed, and it only<br />
remains to make the changes to the current content. The aim is to have<br />
the new web site up and running by the end of 2014.<br />
<br />
==EACL Conference Handbook==<br />
<br />
The current ACL Conference Handbook is useful in many respects, but<br />
some of the content is out of date, and not all of it applies to EACL<br />
conferences. Hence we have created a new Conference Handbook, based on<br />
the ACL model and sharing much of its content, but tailored towards<br />
EACL. This initiative has been led by Stephen Clark and Vivi Nastase,<br />
with input from the other members of the EACL Board, and Shuly<br />
Wintner, the General Chair of EACL 2014. The new Handbook is complete<br />
and ready to go online when the new EACL web pages are launched. We<br />
hope that this will be an invaluable resource for the Chairs of the<br />
EACL 2017 conference (and beyond).<br />

==EACL 2014==<br />
Report by Stephen Clark<br />
<br />
The General Chair, Shuly Wintner, has provided a separate report. All<br />
I will add here, in general terms, is that Shuly did a fantastic job<br />
in overseeing the conference, as did the Program Chairs, Stefan<br />
Riezler and Sharon Goldwater, in preparing the program. The Local<br />
Chairs also deserve a lot of credit, and overall I would say that EACL<br />
2014 was a complete success.<br />
<br />
More specifically, one area that needs to be looked at before EACL<br />
2017 is the joint organisation of the workshops. EACL tends to suffer<br />
in the joint timetable, since it is always the earliest conference of<br />
the year, resulting in a very tight schedule for the EACL<br />
workshops. Lluís, the Chair-Elect, is in an excellent position to<br />
investigate this further since Lluís was the workshops co-chair for<br />
ACL this year.<br />
<br />
The call for bids for EACL 2017 is currently being prepared by the<br />
Chair-Elect, and the first call will be sent out in Autumn 2014.</div>StephenClarkhttps://www.aclweb.org/adminwiki/index.php?title=2014Q1_Reports:_EACL&diff=21262014Q1 Reports: EACL2014-02-11T15:13:32Z<p>StephenClark: </p>

==EACL 2014==<br />
Report by Stephen Clark<br />
<br />
Progress continues to be very good, with the conference now only a few<br />
months away. A large number of long paper submissions were received,<br />
which were expertly handled by the Program Chairs Sharon Goldwater and<br />
Stefan Riezler, and the team of Area Chairs. 78 papers were accepted,<br />
25% of all submissions. Short paper submissions are currently being<br />
reviewed. The indications are that we will have a strong technical<br />
program. There will also be a diverse set of 6 tutorials, and 15<br />
associated workshops. Shuly Wintner continues to do an outstanding job<br />
as General Chair.<br />

Report by Stephen Clark<br />
<br />
The conference organisation is progressing well, with the first call<br />
for papers already distributed. The long paper deadline is 18 October<br />
2013 and the short paper deadline is 6 January 2014. The EACL Chair<br />
encouraged the PC chairs to consult with the chairs of other<br />
conferences when fixing these dates.<br />
<br />
There has been some discussion about the role of mentoring chairs at<br />
ACL conferences. Given the non-use of this service at EACL-12, it was<br />
decided not to have this service for EACL-14.<br />
<br />
The EACL Workshop Chairs have begun to consult with the Workshop<br />
chairs of the other conferences in 2014 (since the workshops will be<br />
coordinated across conferences as in the previous few years).<br />
<br />
The website is up and running: http://eacl2014.org/<br />

==EACL 2014==<br />
Report by Stephen Clark<br />
<br />
The conference organisation is progressing well, with the first call<br />
for papers already distributed. The long paper deadline is 18 October<br />
2013 and the short paper deadline is 6 January 2014. The EACL Chair<br />
encouraged the PC chairs to consult with the chairs of other<br />
conferences when fixing these dates.<br />
<br />
There has been some discussion about the role of mentoring chairs at<br />
ACL conferences. Given the non-use of this service at EACL-12, it was<br />
decided not to have this service for EACL-14.<br />
<br />
The EACL Workshop Chairs have begun to consult with the Workshop<br />
chairs of the other conferences in 2014 (since the workshops will be<br />
coordinated across conferences as in the previous few years).<br />
<br />
The website is up and running: http://eacl2014.org/<br />
<br />
The General Chair is planning a site visit in the Fall.<br />

==EACL Sponsorships==<br />
<br />
The ESSLLI organising committee have nominated three students to be<br />
sponsored to attend ESSLLI 2013 (two students from Africa and one from<br />
Russia). No objections were raised from the EACL Board, and so these<br />
three students will be sponsored in line with EACL policy.<br />
<br />
==EACL Student Board==<br />
<br />
Two new members have been elected to the student board: Desmond<br />
Elliott (University of Edinburgh School of Informatics) and Douwe Kiela (University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory). Desmond and Douwe<br />
will start their terms on July 1 2013, and will replace Konstantina<br />
Garoufi and Coskun Mermer.</div>StephenClarkhttps://www.aclweb.org/adminwiki/index.php?title=2013Q3_Reports:_EACL&diff=18342013Q3 Reports: EACL2013-06-13T12:00:47Z<p>StephenClark: </p>

==EACL 2014==<br />
Report by Stephen Clark<br />
<br />
The conference organisation is progressing well, with the first call<br />
for papers already distributed. The long paper deadline is 18 October<br />
2013 and the short paper deadline is 6 January 2014. The EACL Chair<br />
encouraged the PC chairs to consult with the chairs of other<br />
conferences when fixing these dates.<br />
<br />
There has been some discussion about the role of mentoring chairs at<br />
ACL conferences. Given the non-use of this service at EACL-12, it was<br />
decided not to have this service for EACL-14.<br />
<br />
The EACL Workshop Chairs have begun to consult with the Workshop<br />
chairs of the other conferences in 2014 (since the workshops will be<br />
coordinated across conferences as in the previous few years).<br />
<br />
The website is up and running: http://eacl2014.org/<br />
<br />
The General Chair is planning a site visit in the Fall.<br />

As announced in the previous quarterly report, Gothenburg was chosen<br />
to host EACL 2014. Since then we have chosen the General Chair, who is<br />
Shuly Wintner from the University of Haifa, and the Program Chairs:<br />
Sharon Goldwater from the Unviersity of Edinburgh and Stefan Riezler<br />
from the University of Heidelberg. Shuly has since compiled a list of<br />
conference chairs. Organisation is progressing well, in line with the<br />
standard ACL conference timeline, and there exists effective<br />
communication between EACL, the General Chair and the Local Chairs.<br />

Report by Stephen Clark<br />
<br />
As announced in the previous quarterly report, Gothenburg was chosen<br />
to host EACL 2014. Since then we have chosen the General Chair, who is<br />
Shuly Wintner from the University of Haifa, and the Program Chairs:<br />
Sharon Goldwater from the Unviersity of Edinburgh and Stefan Riezler<br />
from the University of Heidelberg. Shuly has since compiled a list of<br />
conference chairs. Organisation is progressing well, in line with the<br />
standard ACL conference timeline, and there exists effective<br />
communication between EACL, the General Chair and the Local Chairs.<br />
