This message answers to M. Saiz's query for information about
Spanish taggers.

As far as we know, there are at least six good taggers for Spanish,
developed by the following people or institutions:
* Lluis de Yzaguirre (Universidad Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona)
* Universidad Politecnica de Barcelona
* Ricard Perez (Barcelona)
* Mark Casper (USA)
* Fernando Sanchez (Universidad Autonoma de Madrid)
* Bautista Horcajada (Instituto de Lexicografia. Real Academia Espan~ola)

We have been evaluating all these systems with the aim of selecting one
of them. We will publish the results of the evaluation in a final report
in January 1996. If anyone is interested in these results, please contact us:
