The Joint Accelerator Conferences Website started from an idea to publish the conference proceedings on the WWW and has grown to an international collaboration which does much more than just publish the proceedings and is currently supported by seven conference series. Through attendance at Steering Committee meetings and Team Meetings and through active participation in the work of the editorial teams of sister conferences, people with the responsibility for the production of the electronic versions of conference proceedings come together to learn from the experience of colleagues, and to develop common approaches to problems. The activities of the collaboration cover all aspects of electronic publication and have recently extended into conference scientific programme management. This paper reviews the history of the collaboration, describes some of the highlights in the activities during the life of the collaboration and presents the current status and future plans.
