Question #6
The Board proposes a set of modifications to the Bylaws. These changes pursue three main objectives: (1) Granting "IACR Communications in Cryptology" (CiC) a status comparable to that of the Journal of Cryptology and its Editor. In particular, one of CiC’s Co-Editors would serve as an Appointed Director on the Board. (2) Establishing a new Appointed Director role: the IT Manager. The IT infrastructure of the IACR is increasing in scale and complexity, and this critical component currently lacks formal management. The IT Manager would oversee all IT operations, supervise IT staff and volunteers, and advise the Board on IT-related decisions. (3) Additional minor revisions aim to clarify or simplify existing provisions while preserving the spirit of the current text. The proposed new Bylaws are available here: (https://iacr.org/elections/2025/bylaws-proposed-2025.pdf), and an annotated version is available here: (https://iacr.org/elections/2025/bylaws-proposed-2025-diff.pdf). Do you approve these changes?
