New page

* Election platform up and running very smoothly. Used by me for ACL 2019, SIGDAT, and SIGLEX elections and by NAACL exec based on our recommendation for NAACL 2019 elections (via a separate account). Setting up an election now takes only 15 minutes and it runs quite seamlessly producing reliable results.
* Web infrastructure volunteer committee created in late 2019. Work has started in earnest to replace aclweb.org and the wikis with a modernized version (including a blog). Committee also making good progress on setting up a modern ACL Fellows nomination portal. it should be ready for this year's ACL fellows selection process. Currently being tested.
* Almost all ACL, SIG, and conference domains consolidated into BlueHost. This makes it much easier to keep track of them, renew them, and to create conference sub-domains rather than buying a new one for each conference (see next item).
* Official conference domain policy proposed and accepted; already implemented via 2020.emnlp.org. It has also been backported to 2018.emnlp.org since emnlp2018.org expired. It will also be used for the next EACL and AACL.
* Assisted with the TACL migration to new provider.
* Office365 account up and running and used by PCC, by Jennifer for GDPR project, by Rada for Equity Director microsoft form, and by ACL 2020 PCs for all their forms.
* ACL 2020 Slack channels on Main ACL workspace is working quite well.
* Had Pranav upload the code for the aclweb portal on GitHub & set up a process for making changes via pull requests that are reviewed by me.
* Work with Jennifer to answer GDPR-related questions about IT infrastructure.
* Work with the Anthology Director and volunteers on the logistics for getting older IWPT proceedings sent to a scanning company. And to migrate the official ACL Vimeo account to our credit card so we can control it.
* Support coi-detection and reviewer-paper-matching projects on GitHub.
* Guiding the ACL 2020 website & app chairs as needed.
