TalkBank is the only CLARIN center outside of the EU, but hopefully there will be others in the future. You will also now find the CLARIN logo at the bottom of the CHILDES and TalkBank pages.<br> The addition of CHILDES and TalkBank to CLARIN and the receipt of the DSA approval are based on the work that Leonid Spektor did for creating CMDI Metadata and Handle Server PIDs and on work that Franklin Chen did to set up methods for SSL secure logon, XML validation, and InCommon federated login. These various structures will be increasingly important in the future as CLARIN develops new web services and searching methods such as the Virtual Language Observatory.<br><br>-- Brian MacWhinney<br><br>-- <br>You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Info-CHILDES" group.<br>To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to <a href="mailto:info-childes+unsubscribe@googlegroups.com">info-childes+unsubscribe@googlegroups.com</a>.<br>To post to this group, send email to <a href="mailto:info-childes@googlegroups.com">info-childes@googlegroups.com</a>.<br>To view this discussion on the web visit <a href="https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/info-childes/A0CDAA22-41D9-4DF9-BF69-C3523A1FFC58%40cmu.edu">https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/info-childes/A0CDAA22-41D9-4DF9-BF69-C3523A1FFC58%40cmu.edu</a>.<br>For more options, visit <a href="https://groups.google.com/d/optout">https://groups.google.com/d/optout</a>.<br></div></blockquote></div><br></div><br><br><div>
