Greetings all,

I would be very appreciated, if anybody could point to references, share 
an experience about how to annotate/search syntactic zeros in a corpus. 
I mean
- ellipsis like “[Where are you going?] – *To town*”;
- gapping like “I read a book, and he Ø a newspaper”
and the like.

The problem might be relevant for any annotation scheme, but it seems to 
be crucial, concerning the Russian language, our team is working with.

Thanks
