Thanks to Lee, Susana, Eric, and Andrew for their replies, excerpted
below.
From Lee Gillam <l.gillam@eim.surrey.ac.uk>
Try "Lexical Annotation Framework" as a Google search - this activity
is running through ISO TC37 SC4 and should become a standard some time in the
next 18-24 months.
From Susana Sotelo Docío <ssd@linghoo.com>
take a look at OLIF (http://www.olif.net/), Open Lexicon Interchange
Format. It intends to be a lexicon and terminology exchange standard,
and it is based on XML.
From Eric Atwell <eric@comp.leeds.ac.uk>
I assume you mean lexico-grammatical annotation i.e. Part-of-Speech
tagging standards? Shereen Khoja and Andrew Hardie finished PhDs at
Lancaster last year which included analyses of how EAGLES-style tagsets
extend beyond EU languages to Arabic (Khoja) and Urdu (Hardie);
From Andrew Hardie <a.hardie@blueyonder.co.uk>
I just thought I'd let you know that my thesis on Urdu is now
available - hopefully it will be on the web before too long, but for
now if you'd like to see any part of it (e.g. the chapter on my
EAGLES-compliant POS tagset for Urdu) I can send it to you by email.
Cheers,
Philip
