Dear all,

since our last message on Loomio, we can report the following progress: the steering committee has been created long ago and is very active in the creation of the Overlay Journal in Mechanics. This committee is currently working on two topics: nomination of colleagues in the scientific committee of the journal and definition of the template for the final look of accepted papers. Currently, about 15 colleagues have accepted their nomination in the Scientific Committee, and the target is about 40 members. This committee will later be in charge of creating the editorial committee of the journal. Various aspects of the template are also being discussed (citation style, font family, logo, DOI, Scopus and ISI indexation, bibliography style...). We hope to reach a consensus by early Fall 2019.

It is still hoped that the journal will in place for submissions by the end of this year.

Enjoy the summer break.
The happy team.

SB
