If by "you" you mean "ICAME", yes it does. It has the Lancaster
survey and my own survey of corpora. These are available via
anonymous ftp to nora.hd.uib.no in directory pub/corpora. ICAME
also has Bengt Altenberg's extremely useful bibliographies of
published works based on or related to computerized English text corpora
(in directory pub/icame). ICAME's website is http://www.hd.uib.no

In addition, there are several other websites I wanted to mention.

The 2 websites with the most comprehensive and most recent coverage
of corpora are:
- ACL (Ken Litkowski): http://www.clres.com/siglex.html
- Michael Barlow: http://www.ruf.rice.edu/~barlow/corpus.html

Several other nice ones for corpora and corpus resources are:
- Stuttgart, IMS, computational linguistics:
http://www.ims.uni-stuttgart.de/IMS.html
- Lund, Dept. of Linguistics and Phonetics: http://www.ling.lu.se
- CLR: http://clr.nmsu.edu/clr/CLR.html
- Oxford Text Archive: http://ota.ox.ac.uk/TEI/ota.html
- ELSNET: http://www.cogsci.ed.ac.uk/elsnet/eci_summary.html
- Mannheim, IdS: http://www.ids-mannheim.de/telri/telri.html
- CETH (Humanities): http://www.ceth.rutgers.edu

If there are others I've left out, I'd be very interested to know
of them, too.

Best Wishes,
