News January 2010

There are many strong submissions currently in the reviewing pipeline, and the first accepted ones in the editing phase, to be published very soon. Watch this space.

Endorsements

We've received endorsement by SIGdial, the joint ACL and ISCA Special Interest Group on Discourse and Dialogue, and SemDial, the organisers of the Workshop Series on the Semantics and Pragmatics of Dialogue.

Now open for submissions

It is our great pleasure to announce the start of a new international journal, the first dedicated exclusively to work that deals with language "beyond the single sentence", in discourse (i.e., text, monologue) and dialogue, from a theoretical as well as an experimental and technical perspective.

More specifically, our aim is to publish

• the best research in the area of discourse and dialogue (as specified in the Aims and Scope document),
• in a timely manner (we are committed to achieving a mean time between submission and decision of 3 months), and
• open to interested readers everywhere (open access, online).

We are part of the LSA eJournal initiative. Articles will be published online as soon as they have been accepted. Each year, a (hardcopy) volume collecting all articles of that year will be published by CSLI Publications.

We are now accepting submissions. We look forward to receiving your best work.

The managing editors.
