sessions for linguists already familiar with RRG; the preliminary list of
workshop topics includes morphological theory, diachronic syntax, lexical
representation, and language acquistion.

There will be a one-day conference at which current work in RRG will be
presented.  Talks will be 30 minutes long (25 min. + 5 min. discussion).
