[Corpora-List] Legal aspects of compiling corpora - proposal

[Elisabeth Burr]

Dear Corpus colleagues,

I think it would be time to find a way of archiving the discussion on
this list in a structured (threads by topic, date, name etc) way and
make this archive accessible on the Web. Models for such a resource
could be the linguist list:
http://linguistlist.org/
and
Humanist Discussion Group:
http://www.kcl.ac.uk/humanities/cch/humanist/

The web pages could then be integrated with all sorts of information
which is useful to us like the one about legal aspects.

Best regards
Elisabeth
