[Corpora-List] "Legal Constraints for Digital Language Resources" Workshop: Call for participation

[Marc Kupietz]

Dear corpora list members,

We would like to invite you to the workshop: 

"Legal Constraints for Digital Language Resources" 

on 2009-09-28 
at the Berlin-Brandenburgische Akademie der Wissenschaften (BBAW) in
Berlin.

The aim of the workshop is to discuss individual approaches and best
practices to deal with legal restrictions concerning the collection,
distribution, and use of linguistic data, e.g. text corpora, audio and
video resources. Another focus will be on ethical issues when dealing
with, e.g. endangered languages. These issues become increasingly
important when language resources are included in the currently evolving
e-research infrastructures that for example, the European ESFRI-project
CLARIN or its German counterpart D-SPIN are aiming at. 

The workshop is organised by the D-SPIN project that is funded by the
German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). There is no
registration fee. However, we would like to ask participants to register
as soon as possible at http://www.ids-mannheim.de/d-spin/ap7ws09.html .

Best regards,
 Marc Kupietz
