Brief minutes

• Two new postdocs have been applied: Alexander Clark (Geneva) and Franck Thollard (Tuebingen).
• Adelina Ivanova (Geneva) and Rob Koeling (Cambridge) have left the project. Other people that are expected to leave this year either because of a new job or because their contract runs out: Nicola Cancedda (Grenoble, February 28), Hervé Déjean (Tuebingen, March 31), Erik Tjong Kim Sang (Antwerp, July 31), Anja Belz (Cambridge, August 31) and James Hammerton (Dublin, December 31).
• Third year reports MUST be handed in at April 1, 2001. A fourth year report is required of those who are employed in the project after March 31, 2001.
• CoNLL-2001 will contain a special session on the project. John Nerbonne will be the main speaker with short contributions from Erik Tjong Kim Sang and Hervé Déjean.
• The final project meeting will be held at CoNLL-2001 in Toulouse, France. No EU person will be present at this meeting and it will be brief (2-3 hours).
• The plans for a project book have shifted to writing a special issue of a journal. James Hammerton and Susan Armstrong will take the initiative for this new plan.
• There are vague plans for continuing the project after it runs out. A bottleneck will be finding industrial partners.
