[CWB] Sample corpus for IMS Corpus Workbench

[Stefan Evert]

Dear all,

I've finally managed to dig up the original data files for the DICKENS demo corpus.  I have now imported them into the SVN repository on sf.net and produced a new release 1.0 that should be compatible with CQPweb (but otherwise _mostly_ identical to version 0.99).

Can you give it a try, please, before I make it officially available on our Web site?  If you note any inconsistencies with the CQP tutorial or other online documentation, let me know.

You can grab the release version from the SVN repository with

	svn export https://cwb.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/cwb/doc/corpora/dickens/release/Dickens-1.0 .

or

	svn export https://cwb.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/cwb/doc/corpora/dickens/release/Dickens-1.0.tar.gz .

to obtain the archive (which you then have to unpack yourself).

Cheers,
Stefan
