0. Delays

Both the making and the mailing of the News suffered various delays, the
last one due to the entry of hackers in the linguistlist system. The
mailing of  LT 3:1 and the ALT invoice has also been delayed. So nothing
is wrong with your membership!


1. In Memoriam

In the last few months two ALT members have died: Keith Denning and Jim
McCawley. Memorial pages have been set up at

http://www.emich.edu/~lingprog/keithmem.html

and

http://humanities.uchicago.edu/humanities/linguistics/

Here are a few words from Frans Plank about Jim McCawley:

It could be seen from their face that some were surprised, or indeed
awe-struck, as they sighted Jim McCawley, as large as life, at ALT's
inaugural meeting at Vitoria-Gasteiz in the Basque Country, four years
ago. It was self-evidently an honour and a pleasure to have him around
as this association was getting going.  What an asset he was became
increasingly evident as ALT I proceeded, perhaps to the surprise of some
whose idol he may have been in their
where-do-(English-)noun-phrases-come-from pre-typological days of old:
the range and depth, the wit and enthusiasm of his impromptu comments
were rarely equalled by the talks that he would comment on.  And it was
not that these talks--or later the papers that he helped to review for
LT--were all fatally flawed.  It was that Jim McCawley, the scholar and
man of many qualities, was in a class of his own. Better instruction and
entertainment on adverbs, vowels, and other objects of wonder were not
to be had.

It would have been good to have him around longer.  Who will now remind
typologists at future ALT conferences of everything that they'd better
want to know and that they'd better be ashamed not to have asked?




2. ALT III


At the end of August the University of Amsterdam will host the following
meetings:

24-25 August : Third Symposium on Malay / Indonesian  Linguistics

               Association for Linguistic Typology): Workshop on
              Creoles and Typology
27-29 August: ALT III, General Program

Each has its preliminary program. Thanks are due to

Peter Cole (U Delaware), David Gil (MPI Leipzig) and Uri Tadmor (MPI
Jakarta) [Malay/Indonesian Linguistics)
