John Baez (Dec 18 2020 at 18:24):It's not exactly a new journal - more like a new subjournal of Theory and Applications of Categories.
The editors of TAC (Theory and Applications of Categories) are pleased to announce a new series of the journal entitled "TAC Expositions". This is a separate series from the standard journal, with a specific focus on expository articles in the theory and applications of categories. The editorial policy of the new series states:
"Expositions in Theory and Applications of Categories ('TAC Expositions') is a special series specifically designed for publication of well-written and novel expository articles on topics of current research interest in the theory and/or applications of categories. While a TAC Exposition article need not include new results, it must be novel in either its arrangement or viewpoint, providing a new perspective or context for known results. Authors considering submitting an expository paper are advised to consult an editor on its suitability for TAC Expositions."
For more information, see http://www.tac.mta.ca/tac/expositions/index.html.
We look forward to receiving your contributions for this new series!
All the best,
Geoff Cruttwell
TAC Managing Editor

To maintain a high standard in the TAC Expositions series, articles in this series must be approved by two TAC editors.
Bruno Gavranović (Dec 19 2020 at 10:41):This is great! I've also been thinking for a while CT needs expository articles of the same level as https://distill.pub/ I really hope to get around to doing something like this, eventually...
