Subject: Looking for Large Scale English LFG Parser/Grammar


Hello:

I am currently a 4th year PhD student at the University of Illinois atChicago who is working towards a thesis in Discourse Parsing. I waswondering if there are any freely downloadable LFG parsers in English witha wide coverage grammar that I could use for my research work. XLE seems tobe a popular one but is proprietory. If anyone has developed any LFGparsers/grammars for English or knows of any, please let do let me know.

Thank you in advance.

Best Regards,
