Well, in this instance you are in luck! I have copied the contents of 
the thread on "corpus syntax (and how we can use it to code meaning)" 
off the corpora-list to a bulletin board here:

http://corpora.davidbrooks.org.uk/viewtopic.php?t=2

It's not ideal because threaded discussions don't view very well, and 
any technological suggestions would be welcomed (I trialled MediaWiki, 
and ended up with phpBB2 -- if anyone knows of a threaded BB then let me 
know and I'll try it out). However, it should be adequate for new users 
to post, and for discussion to continue. You'll have to register to use it.

I'll try and keep spam(bot) postings to a minimum, but I'm not too 
concerned with keeping traffic volumes down as I don't really use the 
main site much at the moment. Anyone with immediate concerns or 
suggestions should feel free to email me directly. Also, if anyone wants 
other topics (that perhaps they don't feel were adequately concluded) 
ported across, I can do this but it takes a little while.

I hope this brings peace to those fatigued inboxes, while maintaining 
the breadth of interest/participation in the discussion!

And I'll start it off with a reply to Rob expressing my concerns about 
corpus syntax...

Best,
David
