[CWB] Plans for progress

Hi Gabriele,

You're quite right, the use of aligned parallel corpora is a big hole 
in the documentation, and I had entirely forgotten it. It is on the 
TODO list now!

For now, I suspect that what Stefan pointed you to is probably all 
that is available. Here are a few more links to previous discussions on
this 
list, which you may have already seen:

Dear Andrew,
Thank you for your messages.

Is it possible to get also a brief tutorial about how to use cwb with
parallel corpora?

I'm collecting texts in Latin, Italian, English and Swahili in order
to build one or more parallel corpora. But I don't know how to write
appropriate queries then.

Do you know if any start guide is somewhere already availiable?
Many thanks to you and to everybody for any suggestion.

To now I'm following just a very brief suggestion about alignment I
was given months ago by Stefan. Many thank to him also.
