    Does anyone know how advanced the EuroWordnet project is? Any new about its public distribution?

    I am interested in using something akin to wordnet for Spanish natural language processing.

    I have tried reaching the Euro Wordnet project website at http://www.let.uva.nl/~ewn/ but it seems to be off-line.

    Thanks for any help you might be able to provide

    Dear linguist list members:

    This Fall I will be teaching an undergraduate introductory sociolinguistics seminar (for general linguistics majors in Croatia) in which I would like to have my students do some type of hands-on work. I am familiar with the pre-1990 literature, but I would appreciate any suggestions for good general undergraduate textbooks (as well as books on sociolinguistic theory) written after 1990. (My particular interests are linguistic change, contact linguistics, and attitudes about language.)

    I'm looking for some macros to build RST trees with LaTeX. Could you suggest me any site where I can find them?

    Thank you
