[Corpora-List] BNC dates

[Mike Scott]

Does anyone have information on the text dates of the BNC (dates of 
publication or recording)? I have been parsing the headers and have 
managed to find something approximating a believable date in 
three-quarters of the texts, though surprised to see dates often not 
logged at all though sometimes visible e.g in the title. Perhaps there 
was at some time a log-file of some sort. Lou Burnard might know?

Reason for the request is I'm developing time-line facilities for 
WordSmith 6. Grateful for information on BNC in particular but also 
other well-established corpora.

Mike
