On February 6, 2013, another ISAPL founder and, also, with Prof. T. Slama-Cazacu, its ideator, Prof. Renzo Titone passed away. Prof. M. Danesi wrote in his honor a note at the journal Italica, 91(1), available at here and I wrote his obituary on the ISAPL Bulettin v. XXI, n. 1, April 2013 – v. XXI, n. 2, Sept. 2013.
An old aspiration of ISAPL members was to have its Statutes registered. This goal was finally achieved, thanks to the efforts of the Italian colleagues A. Manuti, G. Mininni, M. A. Pinto, D. M. Ponterotto and S. Stame. The Statutes approved by the Assembly General, during the 10th ISAPL International Congress had to be adapted to the legal requirements of the Italian notary Michele Labriola and translated into Italian. An interim Executive Board has been chosen, for the purpose of the registration, since all should be Italian, as follows: President: D. M. Ponterotto; Vice-President: M. A. Pinto; Secretary/Treasurer: A. Manuti; Executive Board Members: S. Stame and G. Mininni. The Honorary Presidents were officially designated as Honorary Members, as follows: Prof. T. Slama-Cazacu (in memoriam), Prof. R. Titone (in memoriam); Prof. L. Scliar-Cabral (Florianópolis, Brazil), altogether with Prof. M. da G. Pinto (Porto, Portugal).
