Apologies for multiple postings!

Paper submission deadline for the MTT 2007 Conference extended to  
February, 25th!

------------------------------------------------------------------------ 
-------------------------------
Third International Conference on Meaning-Text Theory (MTT)
	May 21 - 24, 2007, Klagenfurt, Austria

              - Final Call for Papers -

The Meaning-Text Theory is a holistic linguistic theory characterized
in particular by the central position of the lexicon, the primacy of
semantics, the importance of the communicative structure (=
information structure), and the reliance on dependencies on all
levels. MTT has been extensively developed over the last four decades
with respect to its coverage of linguistic phenomena and application
in a variety of research fields - among them natural language
processing (in particular text generation) and second language
learning and teaching.

After MTT '03 in Paris and MTT '05 in Moscow, this conference is the
third in a series that aims at bringing together researchers working
on MTT, other dependency-based linguistic theories and computational
applications drawing upon dependency theories. The special goal of
this conference is to open MTT more to researchers working in related
frameworks.

Before the main conference, a social program will be offered. After
the main conference, a 1/2 day tutorial on natural language generation
in the framework of MTT is foreseen.

SUBMISSIONS

We invite submissions on all topics related to MTT and other
grammatical and lexical frameworks that share with MTT the fundamental
principles such as dependency, the primacy of the lexicon,
stratificational nature of the linguistic model, etc.


SUBMISSION FORMAT

Submissions must be in English. They may not exceed 10 pages in length
(including all figures, data, notes, and bibliography) using a 12
