    TRACTOR has many language resources in East European languages,
    including parallel corpora.

    Take a look at the website www.tractor.de to see what is
    available. You may be interested in Plato's Republic with sentence
    alignment in all language pairs for Bulgarian, Czech, German, English,
    French, Croatian, Lithuanian, Polish, Serbo-Croat, Slovakian and
    Slovene. These texts and alignments were previously released on the
    TELRI 'East meets West' CD-ROM, edited by Tomaz Erjavec, Ann Lawson
    and Laurent Romary.

    Many members of the TRACTOR User Community are currently developing and
    using parallel corpora, and so anyone else working in this area is very
    welcome to get involved. One current project is the extension of the
    Plato project to new language pairs, alignment programs and markup
    schemes.

    Best wishes,
    Martin
