The 7-th member is the Scientific Director of Schloss Dagstuhl or his/her representative.</p> <p>The Editorial Board elects its chairperson for a 2-year mandate, renewable twice. It is the chairperson’s responsibility to organize the Board’s deliberations in a timely fashion, and to record its decisions. An archive of the Editorial Board’s decisions is maintained by Schloss Dagstuhl.</p> <p>Apart from the Scientific Director of Schloss Dagstuhl or his/her representative, the Editorial Board members have a 4-year mandate, renewable once. As an exception, three of the initial six members of the Editorial Board have a 6-year mandate, in order to ensure that the renewal of the Editorial Board is gradual. Former members may be nominated again, after a gap of at least 4 years.</p> <p>New Editorial Board members must be selected when the mandate of current members terminates or when the Editorial Board needs to be expanded to include experts of branches of computer science not yet covered. In either case, new members are nominated and chosen by the current members of the Editorial Board, who will consult in the process Schloss Dagstuhl’s Scientific Advisory Board and relevant scientific associations. In the deliberation on the co-optation of new members of the Board, such considerations as nationality (or rather in which country one is professionally based) and gender shall also be taken into account, in order to avoid uniformity of any kind.</p> <p>The Editorial Board functions as a whole and it is not its members’ mission to represent or defend a particular community. The Board’s deliberations are confidential and its decisions are reached by votes. The votes on selecting a new Board member or accepting a new conference in the LIPIcs series must be obtained with a 2/3 majority.</p> <p>[1] FST&TCS (Foundations of Software Technology & Theoretical Computer Science) and STACS (Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science)</p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="tab-pane fade" id="selection" role="tabpanel" aria-labelledby="selection-tab"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-sm-2"> <h5>Editorial Policy</h5> </div> <div class="col-sm-10"> <p>The LIPIcs series will publish only high-quality conference proceedings, and the selection of these conferences is entrusted to the Editorial Board. The LIPIcs series is meant for recurring conferences, but isolated conferences of exceptional value may also be considered. In making its selection decisions, the Board will pay particular attention to the following criteria:</p><ul><li>the <b>international character</b> of the conference (program committee, speakers, etc);</li> <li>the <b>attractiveness and selectivity</b> of the conference (number of submissions, acceptance rate);</li><li>the <b>importance</b> of the conference in its domain;</li><li>whether the conference will justify <b>indexation</b> by all major relevant agencies (e.g., <a href='https://clarivate.com/webofsciencegroup/solutions/webofscience-cpci/'>Clarivate CPCI</a>, <a href='https://www.scopus.com/'>Elsevier Scopus</a>, <a href='https://dblp.org'>dblp</a>).</li></ul>In addition, the Editorial Board will examine<ul><li>whether the <b>steering committee</b> of the conference is representative of a community or a professional association, and has an international composition;</li><li>the <b>rules for the election of the members of the steering committee</b> and the duration of their appointment.</li></ul>The Editorial Board may also, at its discretion, make use of existing conference classifications (e.g. <a href='http://portal.core.edu.au/conf-ranks/'>CORE</a>, <a href='http://www.capes.gov.br/images/stories/download/avaliacao/Comunicado_004_2012_Ciencia_da_Computacao.pdf'>QUALIS</a>, <a href='http://www.consorzio-cini.it/gii-grin-scie-rating.html'>GII-GRIN-SCIE (GGS)</a>, etc.), of documents describing good practices (e.g. those from ACM SIGPLAN) and of any other relevant source of information. </div> </div> <hr /> <div class="row"> <div class="col-sm-2"> <h5>Application Procedure for Conference Organizers</h5> </div> <div class="col-sm-10"> <p>If the steering committee of a conference series is interested in publishing their proceedings as LIPIcs, please apply to LIPIcs Editorial Office at Dagstuhl.</p><p>An application is assumed to cover a 5-year period and should provide information related to the above mentioned criteria of the LIPIcs Editorial Policy.

Note that this is <b>only a recommendation</b> and it is up to the editors of the respective volume to decide on a policy regarding the page limit.
