-An on-line course <I>GF for Resource Grammar Writers</I> will start on
-Monday 20 April at 15.30 CEST. The slides and recordings of the five
-45-minute lectures will be made available via this web page. If requested,
-the course may be repeated in the beginning of the summer school.

-<H2>Executive summary</H2>
-<P>
-GF Resource Grammar Library is an open-source computational grammar resource
-that currently covers 12 languages.
-The Summer School is a part of a collaborative effort to extend the library
-to all of the 23 official EU languages. Also other languages
-chosen by the participants are welcome.
-</P>
-<P>
-The missing EU languages are:
-Czech, Dutch, Estonian, Greek, Hungarian, Irish, Latvian, Lithuanian,
-Maltese, Portuguese, Slovak, and Slovenian. There is also more work to
-be done on Polish and Romanian.
-</P>
-<P>
-The linguistic coverage of the library includes the inflectional morphology
-and basic syntax of each language. It can be used in GF applications
-and also ported to other formats. It can also be used for building other
-linguistic resources, such as morphological lexica and parsers.
-The library is licensed under LGPL.
-</P>
-<P>
-In the summer school, each language will be implemented by one or two students
-working together. A morphology implementation will be credited
-as a Chalmers course worth 7.5 ETCS points; adding a syntax implementation
-will be worth more. The estimated total work load is 1-2 months for the
-morphology, and 3-6 months for the whole grammar.
-</P>
-<P>
-Participation in the course is free. Registration is done via the courses's
-Google group, <A HREF="http://groups.google.com/group/gf-resource-school-2009/"><CODE>groups.google.com/group/gf-resource-school-2009/</CODE></A>. The registration deadline is 15 June 2009.
-</P>
-<P>
-Some travel grants will be available. They are distributed on the basis of a
-GF programming contest in April and May.
-</P>
-<P>
-The summer school will be held on 17-28 August 2009, at the campus of
-Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden.

-<H2>Introduction</H2>
-<P>
-Since 2007, EU-27 has 23 official languages, listed in the diagram on top of this
-document. There is a growing need of linguistic resources for these
-languages, to help in tasks such as translation and information retrieval.
-These resources should be <B>portable</B> and <B>freely accessible</B>.
-Languages marked in red in the diagram are of particular interest for
-the summer school, since they are those on which the effort will be concentrated.
-</P>
-<P>
-GF (Grammatical Framework,
-<A HREF="http://digitalgrammars.com/gf"><CODE>digitalgrammars.com/gf</CODE></A>)
-is a <B>functional programming language</B> designed for writing natural
-language grammars. It provides an efficient platform for this task, due to
-its modern characteristics:
-</P>
-<UL>
-<LI>It is a functional programming language, similar to Haskell and ML.
-<LI>It has a static type system and type checker.
-<LI>It has a powerful module system supporting separate compilation
- and data abstraction.
-<LI>It has an optimizing compiler to <B>Portable Grammar Format</B> (PGF).
-<LI>PGF can be further compiled to other formats, such as JavaScript and
- speech recognition language models.
-<LI>GF has a <B>resource grammar library</B> giving access to the morphology and
- basic syntax of 12 languages.
-</UL>
-
-<P>
-In addition to "ordinary" grammars for single languages, GF
-supports <B>multilingual grammars</B>. A multilingual GF grammar consists of an
-<B>abstract syntax</B> and a set of <B>concrete syntaxes</B>.
-An abstract syntax is system of <B>trees</B>, serving as a semantic
-model or an ontology. A concrete syntax is a mapping from abstract syntax
-trees to strings of a particular language.
-</P>
-<P>
-These mappings defined in concrete syntax are <B>reversible</B>: they
-can be used both for <B>generating</B> strings from trees, and for
-<B>parsing</B> strings into trees. Combinations of generation and
-parsing can be used for <B>translation</B>, where the abstract
-syntax works as an <B>interlingua</B>. Thus GF has been used as a
-framework for building translation systems in several areas
-of application and large sets of languages.
-</P>
-<A NAME="toc4"></A>
-<H2>The GF resource grammar library</H2>
-<P>
-The GF resource grammar library is a set of grammars usable as libraries when
-building translation systems and other applications.
-The library currently covers
-the 9 languages coloured in green in the diagram above; in addition,
-Catalan, Norwegian, and Russian are covered, and there is ongoing work on
-Arabic, Hindi/Urdu, Polish, Romanian, and Thai.
-</P>
-<P>
-The purpose of the resource grammar library is to define the "low-level" structure
-of a language: inflection, word order, agreement. This structure belongs to what
-linguists call morphology and syntax. It can be very complex and requires
-a lot of knowledge. Yet, when translating from one language to
-another, knowing morphology and syntax is but a part of what is needed.
-The translator (whether human
-or machine) must understand the meaning of what is translated, and must also know
-the idiomatic way to express the meaning in the target language. This knowledge
-can be very domain-dependent and requires in general an expert in the field to
-reach high quality: a mathematician in the field of mathematics, a meteorologist
-in the field of weather reports, etc.
-</P>
-<P>
-The problem is to find a person who is an expert in both the domain of translation
-and in the low-level linguistic details. It is the rareness of this combination
-that has made it difficult to build interlingua-based translation systems.
-The GF resource grammar library has the mission of helping in this task.
-It encapsulates the low-level linguistics in program modules
-accessed through easy-to-use interfaces.
-Experts on different domains can build translation systems by using the library,
-without knowing low-level linguistics. The idea is much the same as when a
-programmer builds a graphical user interface (GUI) from high-level elements such as
-buttons and menus, without having to care about pixels or geometrical forms.
-</P>
-<A NAME="toc5"></A>
-<H3>Missing EU languages, by the family</H3>
-<P>
-Writing a grammar for a language is usually easier if other languages
-from the same family already have grammars. The colours have the same
-meaning as in the diagram above.

-<H3>Applications of the library</H3>
-<P>
-In addition to translation, the library is also useful in <B>localization</B>,
-that is, porting a piece of software to new languages.
-The GF resource grammar library has been used in three major projects that need
-interlingua-based translation or localization of systems to new languages:
-</P>
-<UL>
-<LI>in KeY,
- <A HREF="http://www.key-project.org/"><CODE>http://www.key-project.org/</CODE></A>,
- for writing formal and informal software specifications (3 languages)
-<LI>in WebALT,
- <A HREF="http://webalt.math.helsinki.fi/content/index_eng.html"><CODE>http://webalt.math.helsinki.fi/content/index_eng.html</CODE></A>,
- for translating mathematical exercises to 7 languages
-<LI>in TALK <A HREF="http://www.talk-project.org"><CODE>http://www.talk-project.org</CODE></A>,
- where the library was used for localizing spoken dialogue systems
- to six languages
-</UL>
-
-<P>
-The library is also a generic <B>linguistic resource</B>,
-which can be used for tasks
-such as language teaching and information retrieval. The liberal license (LGPL)
-makes it usable for anyone and for any task. GF also has tools supporting the
-use of grammars in programs written in other
-programming languages: C, C++, Haskell,
-Java, JavaScript, and Prolog. In connection with the TALK project,
-support has also been
-developed for translating GF grammars to language models used in speech
-recognition (GSL/Nuance, HTK/ATK, SRGS, JSGF).
-</P>
-<A NAME="toc7"></A>
-<H3>The structure of the library</H3>
-<P>
-The library has the following main parts:
-</P>
-<UL>
-<LI><B>Inflection paradigms</B>, covering the inflection of each language.
-<LI><B>Core Syntax</B>, covering a large set of syntax rule that
- can be implemented for all languages involved.
-<LI><B>Common Test Lexicon</B>, giving ca. 500 common words that can be used for
- testing the library.
-<LI><B>Language-Specific Syntax Extensions</B>, covering syntax rules that are
- not implementable for all languages.
-<LI><B>Language-Specific Lexica</B>, word lists for each language, with
- accurate morphological and syntactic information.
-</UL>
-
-<P>
-The goal of the summer school is to implement, for each language, at least
-the first three components. The latter three are more open-ended in character.
-</P>
-<A NAME="toc8"></A>
-<H2>The summer school</H2>
-<P>
-The goal of the summer school is to extend the GF resource grammar library
-to covering all 23 EU languages, which means we need 15 new languages.
-We also welcome other languages than these 23,
-if there are interested participants.
-</P>
-<P>
-The amount of work and skill is between a Master's thesis and a PhD thesis.
-The Russian implementation was made by Janna Khegai as a part of her
-PhD thesis; the thesis contains other material, too.
-The Arabic implementation was started by Ali El Dada in his Master's thesis,
-but the thesis does not cover the whole API. The realistic amount of work is
-somewhere between 3 and 8 person months,
-but this is very much language-dependent.
-Dutch, for instance, can profit from previous implementations of German and
-Scandinavian languages, and will probably require less work.
-Latvian and Lithuanian are the first languages of the Baltic family and
-will probably require more work.
-</P>
-<P>
-In any case, the proposed allocation of work power is 2 participants per
-language. They will do 1 months' worth of home work, followed
-by 2 weeks of summer school, followed by 4 months work at home.
-Who are these participants?
-</P>
-<A NAME="toc9"></A>
-<H3>Selecting participants</H3>
-<P>
-Persons interested to participate in the Summer School should sign up in
-the <B>Google Group</B> of the course,
-</P>
-<P>
-<A HREF="http://groups.google.com/group/gf-resource-school-2009/"><CODE>groups.google.com/group/gf-resource-school-2009/</CODE></A>
-</P>
-<P>
-The registration deadline is 15 June 2009.
-</P>
-<P>
-Notice: you can sign up in the Google
-group even if you are not planning to attend the summer school, but are
-just interested in the topic. There will be a separate registration to the
-school itself later.
-</P>
-<P>
-The participants are recommended to learn GF in advance, by self-study from the
-<A HREF="http://digitalgrammars.com/gf/doc/gf-tutorial.html">tutorial</A>.
-This should take a couple of weeks. An <B>on-line course</B> will be
-arranged on 20-29 April to help in getting started with GF.
-</P>
-<P>
-At the end of the on-line course, a <B>programming assignment</B> will be published.
-This assignment will test skills required in resource grammar programming.
-Work on the assignment will take a couple of weeks.
-Those who are interested in getting a travel grant will submit
-their sample resource grammar fragment
-to the Summer School Committee by 12 May.
-The Committee then decides who is given a travel grant of up to 1000 EUR.
-</P>
-<P>
-Notice: you can participate in the summer school without following the on-line
-course or participating in the contest. These things are required only if you
-want a travel grant. If requested by enough many participants, the lectures of
-the on-line course will be repeated in the beginning of the summer school.
-</P>
-<P>
-The summer school itself is devoted for working on resource grammars.
-In addition to grammar writing itself, testing and evaluation is
-performed. One way to do this is via adding new languages
-to resource grammar applications - in particular, to the WebALT mathematical
-exercise translator.
-</P>
-<P>
-The resource grammars are expected to be completed by December 2009. They will
-be published at GF website and licensed under LGPL.
-</P>
-<P>
-The participants are encouraged to contact each other and even work in groups.
-</P>
-<A NAME="toc10"></A>
-<H3>Who is qualified</H3>
-<P>
-Writing a resource grammar implementation requires good general programming
-skills, and a good explicit knowledge of the grammar of the target language.
-A typical participant could be
-</P>
-<UL>
-<LI>native or fluent speaker of the target language
-<LI>interested in languages on the theoretical level, and preferably familiar
- with many languages (to be able to think about them on an abstract level)
-<LI>familiar with functional programming languages such as ML or Haskell
- (GF itself is a language similar to these)
-<LI>on Master's or PhD level in linguistics, computer science, or mathematics
-</UL>
-
-<P>
-But it is the quality of the assignment that is assessed, not any formal
-requirements. The "typical participant" was described to give an idea of
-who is likely to succeed in this.
-</P>
-<A NAME="toc11"></A>
-<H3>Costs</H3>
-<P>
-The summer school is free of charge.
-</P>
-<P>
-Some travel grants are given, on the basis of a programming contest,
-to cover travel and accommodation costs up to 1000 EUR
-per person.
-</P>
-<P>
-The number of grants will be decided during Spring 2009, and the grand
-holders will be notified before the beginning of June.
-</P>
-<P>
-Special terms will apply to students in
-<A HREF="http://www.gslt.hum.gu.se/">GSLT</A> and
