Antoinette,<br>

For me, the range of discussions indicates the vibrancy of the
community and its huge range of interests. I do however read this on
gmail which neatly puts all messages on a topic as one conversation to be read (or not) at leisure. This
also avoids cluttering my main mail box or being distracted as new items
come in.<br>

Dear List members,<br>Corpora-list was set up by ICAME (International Computer Archive of<br>Modern and Mediaeval English) to impart information and discuss matters<br>of relevance to the field. We have been receiving complaints that
<br>Corpora-list has recently been dominated by 3 or 4 people talking about<br>topics having little to do with corpus linguistics. Far be it from me to<br>spoil the fun or stifle debate, but we are all anyway swamped with
<br>information beyond our capacity to process, so please do restrict your<br>comments to issues of more central relevance to the particular list<br>community, and/or consider whether private emails might be a more<br>appropriate mechanism for continuing debate once you have found a
<br>conversation partner.<br>All good wishes<br>Antoinette Renouf<br>Chair of ICAME<br><br>--------------------------<br>Antoinette Renouf<br>Professor of English Language and Linguistics<br>School of English<br>University of Central England in Birmingham
