-<H2>Resource Grammar Implementations</H2>
-<P>
-GF Resource Grammar Library is an open-source computational grammar resource
-that currently covers 12 languages.
-The Library is a collaborative effort to which programmers from many countries
-have contributed. The next goal is to extend the library 
-to all of the 23 official EU languages. Also other languages
-are welcome all the time. The following diagram show the current status of the
-library. Each of the red and yellow ones are a potential project.

-<I>red=wanted, green=exists, orange=in-progress, solid=official-eu, dotted=non-eu</I>
-</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.

-<A NAME="toc2"></A>
-<H3>Tasks</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; in addition, we use boldface for the
-red, still unimplemented languages and italics for the
-orange languages in progress. Thus, in particular, each of the languages
-coloured red below are possible programming projects.

-<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="toc4"></A>
-<H3>The Summer School</H3>
-<P>
-A Summer School on resource grammars and applications will
-be organized at the campus of Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg,
-Sweden, on 17-28 August 2009. It can be seen as a natural checkpoint in 
-a resource grammar project; the participants are assumed to learn GF before
-the Summer School, but how far they have come in their projects may vary.
-</P>
-<P>
-More information on the Summer School web page:

-<A NAME="toc5"></A>
-<H2>Other project ideas</H2>
-<A NAME="toc6"></A>
-<H3>GF interpreter in Java</H3>
-<P>
-The idea is to write a run-time system for GF grammars in Java. This enables
-the use of <B>embedded grammars</B> in Java applications. This project is
-a fresh-up of <A HREF="http://www.cs.chalmers.se/~bringert/gf/gf-java.html">earlier work</A>,
-now using the new run-time format PGF and addressing a new parsing algorithm.
-</P>
-<P>
-Requirements: Java, Haskell, basics of compilers and parsing algorithms.
-</P>
-<A NAME="toc7"></A>
-<H3>GF interpreter in C#</H3>
-<P>
-The idea is to write a run-time system for GF grammars in C#. This enables
-the use of <B>embedded grammars</B> in C# applications. This project is
-similar to <A HREF="http://www.cs.chalmers.se/~bringert/gf/gf-java.html">earlier work</A>
-on Java, now addressing C# and using the new run-time format PGF.
-</P>
-<P>
-Requirements: C#, Haskell, basics of compilers and parsing algorithms.
-</P>
-<A NAME="toc8"></A>
-<H3>GF localization library</H3>
-<P>
-This is an idea for a software localization library using GF grammars.
-The library should replace strings by grammar rules, which can be conceived
-as very smart templates always guaranteeing grammatically correct output.
-The library should be based on the 
-<A HREF="http://www.cs.chalmers.se/Cs/Research/Language-technology/GF/lib/resource/doc/synopsis.html">GF Resource Grammar Library</A>, providing infrastructure
-currently for 12 languages.
-</P>
-<P>
-Requirements: GF, some natural languages, some localization platform
-</P>
-<A NAME="toc9"></A>
-<H3>Multilingual grammar applications for mobile phones</H3>
-<P>
-GF grammars can be compiled into programs that can be run on different 
-platforms, such as web browsers and mobile phones. An example is a
-<A HREF="http://www.cs.chalmers.se/Cs/Research/Language-technology/GF/demos/index-numbers.html">numeral translator</A> running on both these platforms.
-</P>
-<P>
-The proposed project is rather open: find some cool applications of 
-the technology that are useful or entertaining for mobile phone users. A 
-part of the project is to investigate implementation issues such as making 
-the best use of the phone's resources. Possible applications have 
-something to do with translation; one suggestion is an sms editor/translator.
-</P>
-<P>
-Requirements: GF, JavaScript, some phone application development tools
-</P>
-<A NAME="toc10"></A>
-<H3>Multilingual grammar applications for the web</H3>
-<P>
-This project is rather open: find some cool applications of 
-the technology that are useful or entertaining on the web. Examples include
-</P>
-<UL>
-<LI>translators: see  <A HREF="http://tournesol.cs.chalmers.se:41296/translate">demo</A>
-<LI>multilingual wikis: see <A HREF="http://csmisc14.cs.chalmers.se/~meza/restWiki/wiki.cgi">demo</A>
-<LI>fridge magnets: see  <A HREF="http://tournesol.cs.chalmers.se:41296/fridge">demo</A>
-</UL>
-
-<P>
-Requirements: GF, JavaScript or Java and Google Web Toolkit, CGI
-</P>
-<A NAME="toc11"></A>
-<H3>GMail gadget for GF</H3>
-<P>
-It is possible to add custom gadgets to GMail. If you are going to write 
-e-mail in a foreign language then you probably will need help from 
-dictonary or you may want to check something in the grammar. GF provides 
-all resources that you may need but you have to think about how to 
-design gadget that fits well in the GMail environment and what 
-functionality from GF you want to expose.
-</P>
-<P>
-Requirements: GF, Google Web Toolkit
-</P>
-<A NAME="toc12"></A>
-<H2>Dissemination and intellectual property</H2>
-<P>
-All code suggested here will be released under the LGPL just like 
-the current resource grammars and run-time GF libraries,
-with the copyright held by respective authors.
-</P>
-<P>
-As a rule, the code will be distributed via the GF web site.
