Dear All,

I'm currently working on an implementation of transformation-based learning
('Brill-learning') which I hope will be both a bit faster and a more flexible
than Brill's own distribution (reachable from Eric Brill's homepage
http://www.cs.jhu.edu/~brill/). I intend to release it to the corpus
linguistics/NLP community when it is finished.

My question is simply if there are other alternative TBL-implementations around,
and if anyone has performed bench-marks etc. on such systems.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
