			After notifications went out, the workshop chairs coordinated with the local chairs, program chairs, publication chairs, the ACL (and in particular Priscilla) and workshop organizers to

			* help workshop organizers with
			** organizing the reviewing process on START

	There were a total of 60 workshop proposals submitted to the Joint Call, 18 more than in the previous year. 44 workshops expressed first preference for ACL, 12 for NAACL, and 9 for EMNLP(there are multiple selections for first preference). Since the number of proposals is high, we limited the number of reviews to three per proposal; that is, one from each of the NAACL/ACL/EMNLP co-chair pairs. We filled in a fixed review form in a Google shared document. After discussions via email we had a Skype session to finalize the decisions.

			We reused materials from the previous editions to produce the Joint Call for workshops. Proposers were asked to indicate their preferences regarding the venue (e.g., ACL, NAACL, EMNLP), the duration of the workshop and expected attendance, among others. Calls for workshop proposals were sent out through the standard listservs, e.g., corpora, ACL portal, etc. Calls were also posted on the NAACL and ACL websites. Postings were coordinated with NAACL and EMNLP co-chairs to avoid multiple postings. A workshop gmail account was also established for communication and submissions.
