		 Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar
		  University of California, Berkeley

			    22-23 July 2000

The 7th International Conference on HPSG will be held on Saturday and Sunday,
July 22-23, 2000, as part of the Berkeley Formal Grammar Conference 2000 at
the University of California, Berkeley,  The event will consist of LFG2000
(July 19-20), HPSG-2000 (July 22-23), and a common day of workshops on July 21,
entitled "Lexical and Constructional Explanations in Constraint-Based Grammar",
offering a valuable opportunity for interaction among researchers of these two
frameworks.

Abstracts for HPSG-2000 are solicited for 20-minute presentations (followed by
10 minutes of discussion) which address linguistic, foundational, or
computational issues relating to the framework of Head-Driven Phrase Structure
Grammar.  Authors are particularly encouraged to submit papers which will be
accessible to researchers and students working in both HPSG and LFG.
