Hi,
We are planning to organize a ParGram meeting in 2016. It is not yet
clear where the meeting will be taking place; we are trying to co-locate
the meeting with other fixed-date venues to attract as many people as
possible, so that the place depends on the date.
I have created a Doodle that lists possible dates. It would be great if
you could indicate your preferences in terms of "Yes" (I think I can
come on this date), "(Yes)" (I may be able to come on this date, but
it's not ideal), or "No" (I can definitely not come on this day). The
co-located events are indicated on the Doodle.
Also, there is interest in trying to join forces with DELPH-IN. I attach
a DELPH-IN email address here, hoping that this invitation will be
forwarded to the appropriate lists.
I think it would be really good to have a joint ParGram/DELPH-IN meeting
soon, to be able to learn from one another and start thinking about
possible future research directions. The idea to apply for a joint EACL
2017 workshop on grammar development/treebanking has also come up.
We are currently planning for a 4-day meeting, but we could extend this
to 5 days if there is need.
Also, if any of you have other suggestions for possible dates, please
let me know so that I can modify the Doodle accordingly.
Best wishes,
Sebastian "Jani" Sulger

Hi,
I am forwarding below a message from Gunn who, at the INESS workshop,
again stressed the importance of establishing licensing terms for all
treebanks integrated in INESS.
For ParGramBank, Gunn suggests that the DELA ("Deposition License
Agreement") could be signed by a single copyright holder on behalf of
the ParGramBank collective; I suggested Miriam as that person. That
person then would have to get written consent from each individual
treebank/grammar team who is part of ParGramBank.
Once the copyright holder has that written consent from everyone, the
DELA can be signed, and ParGramBank can be distributed in INESS under a
Creative Commons license (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0,
https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/).
Gunn also says that it is important that people know they still own the
rights to the annotations/analyses; it's just that INESS is officially
allowed to distribute them. I attach the original template document she
sent me. For each individual ParGramBank treebank, the developer can be
indicated on the treebank information page, so that appropriate credit
is given.
If you have taken part in ParGramBank, or if you would like to
participate in the future, could I ask the following:
1. Please check the attached form and make sure you are fine with the
distribution of your work over INESS as well as the proposed license (CC
BY-NC-SA 4.0).
2. If you have any issues with the DELA, let Miriam and me know; we can
then discuss changes. If all of it is fine by you, we can then get
written consent from you (we are currently working out the details) and
finally license/distribute ParGramBank.
Thanks & Best,
Jani

Betreff: [iness] Draft for a DELA for depositing ParGram in INESS

Dear Sebastian,
I hope you arrived safely at home today, it was very nice to see you again.
Please find attached a draft for a DELA for depositing ParGram in INESS.
The best thing is perhaps if you fill in with the details available to
you, and then you present it to Miriam in a state which looks more
finished than the template I send you. Please CC me in your mail to her,
and let me know what she thinks.
If she is positive, the next step is for her to ask for a written consent
from a representative for each treebank in the ParGram collection (that
they agree that Miriam can sign a DELA for distribution through INESS on
behalf of all the developers. It is very important that she underlines to
them that the ownership remains with them, INESS only offers a
distribution channel for the collection.)
I suppose for the Norwegian one, for instance: Helge or Victoria must give
their consent to Miriam. When Miriam has a written consent from each of
them, we can proceed to get the DELA signed and create metadata.
And please note that I send you an editable version, please make sure that
you don’t change anything apart from the text parts where I specifically
indicate that you edit :)
When you are ready with a version for signing, please send it to me for a
final check.
Please don’t hesitate to ask if you have any questions.
Best,
Gunn
