I suppose you are interested in the Default Language, but if Polish is
also of interest to you, there is a new 1-million word manually
annotated corpus of Polish, a subcorpus of the National Corpus of
Polish.  Actually, NEs are only one of several levels of annotation.
You can get the corpus from http://clip.ipipan.waw.pl/LRT
(cf. NKJP-PodkorpusMilionowy-1.0.tgz).  It's available on the GNU GPL
v.3 licence.

Well, to the best of my knowledge this is the only such a publicly
available corpus for Polish at the moment, so it must be the best ;-)

Best,

Adam P.
