At the NLPlab of FI MU, Brno, Czech Republic, the Manatee system is in
regular use. We use corpora (including BNC) of many different
languages and encodings. Even the largest Czech corpus (more than 620
million tokens) has ambiguous lemma and grammatical annotation. The
Manatee handles pretty well both ambiguity and large size of corpora.
The Manatee system is available from www.textforge.cz
