		== Summary ==

		SIGFSM is actively meeting at its main conference FSMNLP, which is held biennally (last in 2019 in Dresden, Germany; next in 2021 in Stellenbosch, South Africa). Our meetings typically attract 30-50 participants and are organized as satellite workshops of major meetings or stand-alone conferences. The premier conference FSMNLP is usually stand-alone and held at locations where the local research community is involved in developing or using finite-state techniques. In 2019 we met in Dresden, Germany (September 23-25) under the auspices of Heiko Vogler and next year we will meet in Stellenbosch, South Africa under the auspices of Bruce Watson. It is currently planned to co-locate FSMNLP 2021 with similar theory-oriented NLP-conferences and workshops.

		We continue trying to grow SIGFSM into a more active community. All recent event proceedings (FSMNLP 2011-2019, ATANLP 2010-2012, MORPHFSM 2014, and StatFSM 2016) have been published in the ACL Anthology. We also support the import of older proceedings, but we solely depend on the program committee chairs of those former conferences to supply the required information. We joined efforts with the TAG+ community to collocate our premier meetings (as evidenced by the joint meeting in 2017) and to foster more communication and collaboration between the two communities. Despite the current stand-alone nature of FSMNLP, we might consider running it as an ACL satellite event to make it more visible, to make it widely accessible at a lower cost, and to reduce the overhead work in organization.

		== Membership ==

		In 2020, the membership count of SIGFSM has increased to 129. We successfully managed to recruit new members at FSMNLP 2019 (September 23-25, 2019 in Dresden, Germany). We use our meetings to actively recruit new members and hope to attract new members at the next FSMNLP in 2021.

		== Officers ==

		The term of the elected officers started on January 1, 2013. They were all reelected for another term starting January 1, 2016, so their current term ended at the end of 2018. Elections are currently underway and the results will be published end of July. The SIGFSM website will update the elected officers are soon as published.

		== Events and Publications ==

		=== FSMNLP ===
		*FSMNLP 2019 was held September 23-25, 2019 in Dresden, Germany. Frank Drewes (Umeå University, Sweden) and Kilian Gebhardt (University of Technology Dresden, Germany) gave the keynote lectures. Frank reported on "Recent Advances in Efficient Parsing for Graph Grammars" and Kilian spoke about "Latent Variable Grammars for Discontinuous Parsing". As usual, there was a tutorial that introduced a particular research area. More precisely, Aarne Ranta (University of Gothenburg, Sweden) introduced "Grammatical Framework: an Interlingual Grammar Formalism".

		=== SIGFSM Business Meetings ===
		*The last FSMNLP/SIGFSM business meeting was held on September 24, 2019 at FSMNLP in Dresden, Germany.
		*The next business meeting will be held in 2021 at FSMNLP in Stellenbosch, South Africa.

		=== Elections ===
		*The fourth SIGFSM elections are currently running (July 2020). The current officers, who took over on January 1, 2013, were relected and will thus remain in office until the end of 2018. The results of the election will be published end of July 2020.

		== Financial Report ==

		SIGFSM has no savings worth mentioning. All meetings are organized with local funds or funds collected during registration. Indeed it is planned to discuss the further need for a SIGFSM treasurer with the membership at the next business meeting in 2021.
