<p>
  Internally, LEAPS WG3 coordinates some (mostly facility-funded) activity
  through various topical <a href="#gotosig">Special Interest Groups</a>.  One
  goal of such SIGs is to continue the dialogue and coordination started during
  (time-limited) projects.
</p>
<p>
  LEAPS members facilities receive funding through participation in various <a
  href="#gotoprojects">projects</a>.  Some projects are funded by the European
  Commission (part of the European Union), while others are nationally funded.
</p>
<p>
  Finally, the EC-funded OSCARS project itself funds various (smaller scale)
  third-party <a href="#gotooscarsprojects">projects</a> through a "cascading
  grant" mechanism.  A summary table is provided below, which shows those
  projects that impact PaNOSC, the science cluster in which LEAPS is
  represented.
</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>

            <p>
              There are two ways to request subscription to this list: via the
              web and via email.  In either case, please read the instructions
              carefully.
            </p>
            <h3>Request via the web</h3>
            <ol>
              <li>Navigate to the list's <a href="https://lists.desy.de/sympa/subscribe/{{ sig.list-name }}">subscription page</a>, fill in your details and select the &quot;I subscribe to list {{ sig.list-name }}&quot; button.</li>
              <li>You will soon receive an email. <strong>VERY IMPORTANT</strong>
                you have <i>NOT YET</i> made a subscription request!</li>
              <li>Follow the instructions in the email: either open the web
                link or send an appropriate email.</li>
            </ol>
            <h3>Request via email</h3>
            <ol>
              <li>Send a message to <a href="mailto:sympa@desy.de">sympa@desy.de</a> from the adress you want to subscribe to the list.</li>
              <li>In the subject line of your message, type in: <b>subscribe {{ sig.list-name }} Firstname Name</b> (indicate your own name)</li>
              <li>Leave the message body blank.</li>
            </ol>
            <h3>Approval step</h3>
            <p>
              Once you have completed these steps, you have requested
              subscription to the list.  You request will then be processed by
              the SIG coordinator (or someone acting with a similar role).
            </p>
            <p>
              You should receive a confirmation email when your request has
              been approved.
