Overview

The [http://www.delph-in.net DELPH-IN] Standing Committee proposes to hold its second internal working meeting, aiming to bring together developers and active users of DELPH-IN resources to date. The meeting will be held prior to the [http://eamt.emmtee.net/ 11th Annual conference of the European Association for Machine Translation] EAMT) at [http://www.fefor.no/ Fefor Høifjellshotell] in Norway. Participants will meet for five days, between Thursday, June 12, and Saturday, June 17, 2006.

Based on earlier meeting participation and introspection about DELPH-IN distribution, the Standing Committee invites researchers from some twenty R&D sites to participate in the meeting, and between 30 and 45 individuals are expected to be present for the meeting. An up-to-date summary of expected participants can be found on the ParticipantsGroup page.

Aims of the Meeting

The purposes of this meeting are to:

  • update each other on recent developments and current activities;
  • discuss more what we actually expect from DELPH-IN (and each other);
  • create the opportunity for some contentful exchange on computational grammar research in the DELPH-IN spirit

In order to meet these goals, we are breaking the meeting into two parts: the first half will be organized as two parallel, in-depth sessions of active software developers and grammarians, respectively. Discussion in these slots will likely be technical and presuppose some earlier experience with DELPH-IN resources and software. The second half of the week will be plenary and (likely) more varied in content: ranging from site and project updates to strategic and tactical discussion of future activities (and possibly including tutorial elements).

Schedule & Materials

The following members of the standing committee have volunteered to help put together the programme for each of the sections:

We expect that the coordinators will initiate discussion of topics and schedule on the participants mailing list within the foreseeable future.
