From: edwards(a)cogsci.Berkeley.EDU (Jane A. Edwards)
Dear CHILDES Colleagues,
Several people inquired about Corpora, Prosody and the other lists
I mentioned in my posting about the Amsterdam list of linguist email
addresses. I'm appending the relevant details. The information below
is mostly from "Chapter 10: Survey of Corpora and Corpus-Related Resources" of
Edwards, Jane A. & Martin D. Lampert (eds). TALKING DATA: TRANSCRIPTION AND
CODING IN DISCOURSE RESEARCH. London and Hillsdale, NJ: Erlbaum.
336 pp. 0-8058-0349-1 [ppr] US $27.50; 0-8058-0348-3 [hdbk] US $59.95;
Transcription and coding systems from contrasting approaches to spoken
language situated in their theoretical frameworks with sample analyses.
Overview chapters present global design principles. Includes a large
compilation of computerized corpora and related resources. To order in
US: 1-800-926-6579
The rest of the chapter is available via anonymous ftp from nora.hd.uib.no
(the International Computer Archive of Modern English in Bergen, Norway),
in directory pub/corpora, in the file called corpora.survey.edwards.
I would greatly appreciate corrections or additions so that I can include
them in a future update, also to be submitted there.
Best Wishes,
-Jane Edwards (edwards(a)cogsci.berkeley.edu)

1. Begun in 1992, CORPORA is an international email discussion list
for information and questions about text corpora, such as availability,
aspects of compiling and using corpora, software, tagging, parsing,
bibliography, and related matters. To join the list, send the following
one-line command to LISTSERV(a)UIB.NO:
sub corpora firstname lastname
To submit a contribution to the list, send it to CORPORA(a)hd.uib.no.
The list administrator is Knut Hofland, NCCH, Humanistisk Datasenter,
Harald Haarfagres gt. 31, N-5007 Bergen, Norway; Tel: +47 (55) 212954;
FAX: +47 (55) 322656; email: knut.hofland(a)hd.uib.no, or
CORPORA-REQUEST(a)HD.UIB.NO.
2. HUMANIST is an international email discussion list for issues
relating to the application of computers to scholarship in the
humanities. This includes linguistics, comparative literature,
philosophy, Biblical studies, and several other fields. Begun in 1987
under joint sponsorship of the ACH, the ALLC and the University of
Toronto's Centre for Computing in the Humanities, it is currently
housed at Brown University and moderated by Elaine Brennan and Allen
Renear. It has over 600 members in 24 countries. To subscribe, mail
"SUB <your email address>" to listserv(a)brownvm.brown.edu; to post
articles, mail them to humanist(a)brownvm.brown.edu. Articles submitted
to HUMANIST are archived on a file server and can be searched remotely
by means of one-line listserv commands.
3. LINGUIST is an international list intended as a place for
discussion of issues of concern to the academic discipline of
linguistics and related fields. It is moderated by Anthony Aristar
(Texas A&M University) and Helen Dry (Eastern Michigan University).
It explicitly welcomes discussion of any linguistic subfield.
To subscribe to LINGUIST, send email to the LINGUIST listserver
(listserv(a)TAMVM1.tamu.edu), containing the following one-line message:
SUBSCRIBE LINGUIST <Your Name>
for example, "subscribe linguist john smith." To submit a posting to
the list, email it to linguist(a)TAMVM1.tamu.edu.
The LINGUIST fileserver contains contributed files of interest to
language researchers, such as the LSA or Georgetown lists of corpora,
and linguists' email addresses and these are similarly obtainable by
one-line commands. For more information, send the one-line command
"help linguist" via email to linguist-request(a)TAMVM1.tamu.edu. For
questions requiring human attention, send a message to:
linguist-editors(a)TAMVM1.tamu.edu.
4. LN, Langage Naturel, is an international list for computational
linguistics, sponsored by the Association for Computational Linguistics
(ACL) and the Association for Computers and the Humanities (ACH). Its
goal is to disseminate calls for papers, conference and seminar
announcements, requests for software, corpora, and various types of
data, project descriptions, and discussions on technical topics. The
list is primarily French-speaking, but many items are circulated in
English. The list owners and editors are Philippe Blache, Jean Veronis,
and Pierre Zweigenbaum. To subscribe to LN, send the following one-line
message to listserv(a)FRMOP11.cnusc.fr:
SUBSCRIBE LN firstname lastname
To post a message to the list as a whole, email it to LN(a)frmop11.cnusc.fr.
If you have question about the LN list, write to the list owners at the
generic address: LN-request(a)FRMOP11.CNUSC.FR.
5. PROSODY is an international list with members representing a broad
spectrum of approaches including linguistics, psycholinguistics, and
computer science. It serves a vital function of disseminating
information concerning available resources in a technologically rapidly
expanding area. To subscribe, send: "subscribe prosody <your name>" to
LISTSERV(a)msu.edu. To post a message to the list as a whole, send to
prosody(a)msu.edu. To contact the list owners, write to
PROSODY-request(a)MSU.EDU. The list is managed by George Allen, Michigan
State University, who also owns the list, "HYPERCARD."
6. FUNKNET, headed by Talmy Givon and Paul Hopper, is a discussion
list concerned with various aspects of human language, communication,
cognition, socioculture, neuropsychology, and other facets of cognitive
and communicative behavior, viewed from what might loosely be called
the functionalist perspective, that is, language viewed as an
instrument of communication, coding experience, an evolved
neurobiological phenomenon, a sociocultural phenomenon, or a
combination of these, with an emphasis on empirical language study,
including especially corpus data. For further information, contact
Talmy Givon at: funknet-request(a)oregon.uoregon.edu. To post to the
entire list, send to: funknet(a)oregon.uoregon.edu.
7. EMPIRICISTS is a list for corpus-based computational linguistics,
with over 800 subscribers. It originated from the empiricist/rationalist
machine translation debate at TMI-92. While similar to CORPORA, the list
is filtered to minimize volume. It is currently moderated by David Yarowsky
(yarowsky(a)unagi.cis.upenn.edu). To subscribe, send email to
empiricists-request(a)unagi.cis.upenn.edu. Send contributions to
empiricists(a)unagi.cis.upenn.edu.
8. INFO-CHILDES is an international email distribution list moderated
by Brian MacWhinney, Psychology Department, Carnegie Mellon University,

the study of metaphor. To subscribe, send the following command to
listserv(a)ucsd.edu:
ADD yourloginaddress cogling
To post to the entire list, send to cogling(a)ucsd.edu. For additional
questions, the list owners can be reached at: owner-cogling(a)ucsd.edu.
11. Comserve is an electronic information service for professionals and
students interested in human communication studies. It is located at
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and coordinated by Timothy Stephen and
Teresa Harrison, both of whom are professors in communication studies.
Comserve keeps archives of bibliographies, course materials, job
announcements, text transcripts, and other materials, with the author
retaining the rights and the copyright. It coordinates a number of
hotlines on communication, which can be subscribed to via the
listserver. To subscribe to the Ethnomethodology hotline, send the
following one-line message to comserve(a)rpiecs.bitnet:

Send materials to be posted to the net to ethno(a)rpiecs.bitnet and
materials to be archived to support(a)rpiecs.bitnet.
12. ASLING-L is a list for linguistic study of signed languages,
including all linguistic areas, including syntax, acquisition,
phonology, morphology, psycholinguistics, and cognition. To subscribe,
send:
SUB ASLING-L <your name>
to listserv(a)yalevm.bitnet. The listowner is Christine Romano (cromano
@uconnvm.bitnet).
13. Applied linguistics lists. From Ken Willing at Macquarie
University, I learned of the following four lists and their listserver
addresses:
TESL-L (Teaching English as a Second Language)
Listserver address: listserv(a)cunyvm.bitnet
SLART-L (Second Language Acquisition Research and Teaching)
Listserver address: listserv(a)psuvm.bitnet
MULTI-L (Language and Education in Multicultural Settings)
Listserver address: listserv(a)barilvm.bitnet
LTEST-L (Language Testing Research and Practice)
Listserver address: listserv(a)UCLACN1.bitnet
To subscribe, send a one-line email message to the indicated address,
containing:
subscribe XXXXXX john smith
where XXXXXX is the list-name (e.g. TESL-L), and John Smith is your
name.
14. The List of Language Lists (LoLL) describes a large number of
electronic discussion groups devoted primarily to the linguistic study
of individual languages and groups of languages (though a couple of
others, in particular lists for language learners, have been included as
well). The LoLL was compiled by Bernard Comrie and Michael Everson
and is available by anonymous ftp at midir.ucd.ie (137.43.1.13) in
/pub/everson. For further questions, contact Michael Everson, School
of Architecture, UCD; Richview, Clonskeagh; Dublin 14; E/ire, email:
everson(a)irlearn.ucd.ie.
15. List of lists. A very lengthy list of Bitnet and Internet
discussion lists (presently over one megabyte long) can be obtained via
anonymous ftp to ftp.nisc.sri.com (192.33.33.22) in the directory
netinfo as "interest-groups.Z" or by sending the following one-line
message to mail-server(a)nisc.sri.com, making sure in advance that your
system has sufficient space to receive it:
SEND NETINFO/INTEREST-GROUPS
A related list can be obtained by sending email to
listserv(a)ndsuvm1.bitnet with the following one-line message:
