FUND DRIVE 2003

To give you an incentive to donate, many of our Supporting Publishers
have generously donated some amazing linguistic prizes. As a donor you
are automatically entered into this prize draw. To find out what's on
offer and the rules etc., visit:

http://linguistlist.org/prizedraw.html

We still have a long way to go, however, to reach our target of
$50,000. Please make a donation at:

The LINGUIST List depends on the generous contributions from
subscribers like you; we would not be able to operate without your
help.

The moderators, staff, and student editors at LINGUIST would like to
take this opportunity to thank you for your continuous support.

Please keep conferences announcement as short as you can; LINGUIST
will not post conference announcements which in our opinion are
excessively long.

Nancy, "City of Art and History", the historical capital of Lorraine
(the north-eastern part of France) welcomes you to the 8th
International Workshop on Parsing Technologies.  The Laboratoire
Lorrain de Recherche en Informatique et ses Applications (LORIA) in
Nancy, France, will host the 8th International Workshop on Parsing
Technologies (IWPT'03) from 23 to 25 April, 2003.

IWPT'03 continues the tradition of biennial workshops on parsing
technology organised by SIGPARSE, the Special Interest Group on
Parsing of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL). This
workshop series was initiated by Masaru Tomita in 1989. The first
workshop, in Pittsburgh and Hidden Valley, was followed by workshops
in Cancun (Mexico) in 1991; Tilburg (Netherlands) and Durbuy (Belgium)
in 1993; Prague and Karlovy Vary (Czech Republic) in 1995;
Boston/Cambridge (Massachusetts) in 1997; Trento (Italy) in 2000, and
Beijing (China) in 2001.
