   Dear colleagues,

     We are glad to inform you of the release of FreeLing stable version 
3.0.
     You can download it (either source or binaries for Linux and 
Windows) from the download section of the project webpage at 
http://nlp.lsi.upc.edu/freeling

     FreeLing is a library providing language analysis services (such as 
morfological analysis, date recognition, PoS tagging, etc.). Version 3.0 
provides language identification, tokenizing, sentence splitting, 
morphological analysis, text-to-phonetics transcription, NE detection 
and classification, recognition of dates/numbers/physical 
magnitudes/currency/ratios, PoS tagging, shallow parsing, dependency 
parsing, WN-based sense annotation, and word sense disambiguation.
     FreeLing is designed to be used as an external library from any 
application requiring this kind of services. In addition to native C++, 
APIs are provided for Java, Perl, and Python. A simple main program is 
also provided as a basic interface to the library, which enables the 
user to analyze text files from the command line.

    Main new features in version 3.0 are:

  * Full UTF-8 support.
  * New languages: Russian and ancient Spanish (XII-XVI).
  * Reorganized ML components. Inclusion of SVM models thaks to libsvm
    <http://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/%7Ecjlin/libsvm>.
  * Simpler installation: External dependencies only from out-of-the-box
    libboost <http://www.boost.org> packages.
  * Compilable in Linux, MacOSX, and Windows (with MSVC).
  * Improved server mode.

      Best wishes,

             Lluís Padró
