<h1>{{ page.title }}</h1>
<p>The current work is organised either in <a href="#gotosig">special 
  interest groups</a>, which are spontaneous activities among the group 
  or in <a href="#gotoprojects">projects</a>, which are funded by 
  third-parties and have their own processes.</p>

<h1 id="gotosig">Special interest groups</h1>
<p>Following the <a href="https://rd-alliance.org/groups/interest-groups">
  RDA model</a>, WG3 work is organised in Special Interest Groups or 
  SIGs. A SIG is a group of people from different PaN facilities, working 
  together on a particular topic of common interest. The SIGs have 
  defined targets and report progress back to the WG3 meetings. More 
  details on what SIGs are can be found in <a href="/what-is-a-sig.html">
  "What is a SIG?"</a>.</p>
<p>The current list of SIGs is the following:
  <ul>
    {% for sig in site.data.sigs %}
      {% assign uniqid = sig.name | split: " " | join: "-" %}
      <li><a href="#{{ uniqid }}">{{ sig.name }}</a></li>
    {% endfor %}
  </ul></p>

{% for sig in site.data.sigs %}
  {% assign uniqid = sig.name | split: " " | join: "-" %}
  <h2 id="{{uniqid}}">{{ sig.name }} {% if sig.status %}<span class="sticker" style="float: right">{{ sig.status }}</span>{% endif %}</h2>
  {% if sig.chair %}
    {% assign member_chair = site.data.members | find: 'surname', sig.chair %}
    <h3>Coordinator: {{ member_chair.first-name | capitalize }} {{ member_chair.surname | capitalize }} ({{ member_chair.facility }})</h3>
  {% endif %}
