    Dear Moderator,

    I tried to send the following conference announcement
    to the mailing list corpora, but with no success.
    Could you tell me what I should do?

    thanks

    ***********************
    7th INTEX/NooJ Workshop
    Tours, June 7-9 2004
    ***********************

    Call for papers - Deadline: March 31, 2004

    ORGANIZERS

    Laboratoire d'Informatique de l'Université de Tours (E.A. 2101)

    Langues et Représentation, Equipe de recherche en linguistique,
    Université de Tours

    LAboratoire de SEmioLinguistique, Didactique et Informatique (E.A. 2281)

    We invite the submission of papers for the forthcoming seventh
    INTEX/NooJ workshop, to be held in Tours, June 7-9 2004.

    INTEX is a linguistic development environment that includes
    large-coverage dictionaries and grammars, and parses texts of several
    million words in real time. INTEX includes tools to create and maintain
    large-coverage lexical resources, as well as morphological and syntactic
    grammars. Dictionaries and grammars are applied to texts in order to
    locate morphological, lexical and syntactic patterns, remove
    ambiguities, and tag simple and compound words. INTEX can build
    lemmatized concordances of large texts from Finite-State or Context-Free
    grammars, and can accordingly perform transformation operations on texts
    in cascade, in order to annotate the text, or to generate paraphrases;
    these features, when applied in cascade, give INTEX the power of a
    Turing Machine. INTEX is used as a linguistic platform, an information
    retrieval system, to teach second languages, as a terminological
    extractor, as well as to teach computational linguistics to students.

    NooJ, which uses a new technology, a new linguistic engine and a new
    interface, is meant to replace INTEX. NooJ's architecture was presented
    in the 5th INTEX Workshop (Marseille, June 2002) and its first alpha
    version was demoed at the 6th INTEX Workshop (Sofia, May 27-29 2003).

    As in the previous workshops (1996, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2003),
    this meeting will be the opportunity for INTEX and NooJ users, as well
    as other researchers interested in NLP, to meet and to exchange their
    experience of development, research or teaching. It will also be the
    occasion to present the recent developments of NooJ.

    Please, send before March 31st 2004 a one-page abstract to Denis Maurel
    by email. The abstract, in French or English, should contain the title
    of the article, name, author affiliations, surface mail and electronic
    address of each author.

    All papers will be reviewed by the program committee. Authors will be
    notified whether their papers are accepted or rejected by April 15th
    2004. The timeslot is 30 minutes for presentations (including 5 minutes
    for discussions).

    After the conference, authors will be invited to send a definitive
    version of their papers for publishing. We are planning to combine a
    subset of the proceedings of the 6th and the 7th INTEX Workshops in a
    published volume.

    Details concerning the workshop organization will soon be given on the
    conferences website:
