What's going on? See current issues and the agenda page.

In October, 2010, the first Editorial Council (EC) authorized by the Charter was elected.

Members

It has four Editor and three Author members, with Hayford Peirce chosen as Secretary. New elections will be held on December 21, 2011, to choose a number of members who are currently, under the Charter, serving half-terms as opposed to full terms. Elections to fill the terms of the other members will be on December 21, 2012.

As of July 25, 2011, one seat is vacant and will be filled by a special election.
