I'm putting together a paper for a computational linguistics workshop on
cognitive aspects of the lexicon (enhancing the structure, indexes and
entry points of electronic dictionaries). A main objective of my paper
will be an attempt to resuscitate the moribund research within the
computational linguistics community on what used to be called
machine-readable dictionaries. I have much to write about, based on my
experience in working with the XML files of Oxford and Macquarie. But,
I'd like to hear from others if they are doing innovative things that
might be of use to a computational community.

Thanks,
Ken

Thanks, Martin. I've been friends with George for years. I've been primarily trying to find out what standard dictionary publishers are up to. (Doesn't seem...

Although it remains unacknowledged, the WordNet system was inspired by several longish conversations with George over dinner when he'd stop by for a visit on...
