*Evaluation Packages from Technolangue*

/ELRA today announced the publication of six Evaluation Packages in its 
catalogue./

These Evaluation Packages were produced within the French national 
research programme Technolangue funded by the French Ministry of 
Research and New Technologies (MRNT). Each package includes the material 
that was used and/or produced for each evaluation campaign: resources, 
protocols, scoring tools, results of the campaign, etc. The aim of these 
evaluation packages is to enable external players to evaluate their own 
system and compare their results against those obtained during the 
evaluation campaigns.
