Dear colleagues,

We'd like to announce a new corpus useful for research in coherence 
relations. The Discourse Relations Reference Corpus contains RST 
analyses of 65 texts, from different sources. The analyses were compiled 
by Jan Renkema and myself, mostly from annotations by other people.

The corpus can be downloaded as a pdf file from the RST web site:
