[Corpora-List] English-language paraphrase corpora

[Gregor Erbach]

Hi Olga,
Google News (news.google.com) performs grouping of different
news articles relating to the same event, and can be used
for constructing such a corpus.
However, many of the articles will be duplicates, as different
newspapers take over the same text from the press agencies.

regards,

    Gregor
