Great! Are the themes for the 6th workshop similar to the ones here:

http://www.sigwac.org.uk/wiki/WAC5

If so, I think we would definitely fit in the category:

- linguistic Web crawler technology and Web corpus collection projects
- applications of Web-derived corpora and other kinds of Web data
- reviews and clever uses of search engine APIs (Google, Yahoo, Altavista, and in particular Microsoft's current generous Live Search API)

Unfortunately, I don't think we any new technical development to report on beyond what we already described in the attached paper (submitted in Nov 2008), so we may have to wait for the 7th workshop to present something.

Next SIGWAC workshop has just been agreed: it will be at http://naaclhlt2010.isi.edu/ next June.  I'll be chairing it with help
from Serge Sharoff and Dekang Lin.   We'll be working out and posting
a date for the paper submission in early Jan.

Alain: project sounds very interesting, I hope you'll be submitting!
