Hi Meganathan,

A corpus is only really useful if it can be shared, at least for 
research purposes, if not also commercial ones.

To be able do that, Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) issues need to be 
settled.

How we have gone about that for the 500 million word reference corpus of 
contemporary written Dutch SoNaR is detailed in:

LT3 Technical Report LT3 10-02, Hogeschool Gent, Gent, Belgium

Success!
