{{site.title}} organizes a community of researchers and developers in Math Lingusitics with the following [objectives](/objectives/):
1. getting together researchers and application developers interested in maths linguistics to create a critical mass.
2. promoting open licensing of math linguistics resources.
3. collecting, curating, and internally/externally distributing a set of maths linguistic resources (corpora, lexica, libraries, tools, and benchmarks).

### Resource Repositories
We have a [SIGMathLing group](http://gl.kwarc.info/SIGMathLing) on the [GitLab](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GitLab) server [gl.kwarc.info](http://gl.kwarc.info), where we will start making repositories on.

This allows us to use Git permissions for access control and the GitLab permission UI for management.
We estimate that for the first two years SIGMathLing will have below 25 members (reducing the traffic) and below 5 TB data sets.

gl.kwarc.info should be able to serve that given that most data sets will be served via [Git LFS](https://git-lfs.github.com/).
Should space or traffic become a problem for the KWARC servers to handle, we will try to raise money for a more scalable solution.
