[Corpora-List] conference names

[Rayson, Paul]

The conference in St Petersburg is already using the name CORPORA.

 

I like iCLIC as well. 

 

I think of the Corpus Linguistics series as the -C-L- (see-ell)
conference series i.e. CL2001, CL2003, ..., CL2011 so the name doesn't
clash with anything else if you say it that way.

 

Paul.
