Editors' Note

The papers in this volume came out of the workshop on Grammar Engineering Across Frameworks held at Stanford University in conjunction with the LSA Linguistics Institute in July 2007. The workshop included a panel discussion on evaluation methodologies and metrics, a regular session, and a demo session.

We would like to thank the Department of Linguistics at Stanford and the LSA Institute for assistance both financial and logistical in putting on the workshop. For logistical support, we are particularly grateful to Vivienne Fong, Anubha Kothari, David Hall and Daria Suk. Additional financial support came from Powerset and CSLI, whom we thank for their sponsorship of the workshop.

Our appreciation also to the program committee, who not only selected the papers to be presented but also provided valuable feedback to the authors: Jason Baldridge, Srinivas Bangalore, John Bateman, Miriam Butt, Aoife Cahill, Stephen Clark, Berthold Crysmann, Steffi Dipper, Dan Flickinger, Ron Kaplan, Montserrat Marimon, Owen Rambow, and Jesse Tseng.

Finally, we would like to acknowledge the workshop participants, many of whom traveled to Stanford from far away. The discussions were lively and productive, and we hope to see more venues for exchange within the grammar engineering community about topics of mutual interest.

The table of contents lists all the papers presented at the conference or during the demo session. Some papers were not submitted to the proceedings. For these papers, we suggest contacting the authors directly.
