TODO: * develop the web interface for uploading to make it easier to add several documents in one go. (__Saara__) !!More texts to the graphical corpus interface: TODO: * We would like to have more than the NT in the graphical interface http://omilia.uio.no/CE/sami/ (__Saara__) ** We add the largest texts first. * We would like to have grammatical searchability, not only POS. (__Saara__, __Trond__) * This presupposes a discussion with Oslo. (__Trond__ and __Saara__ to continue this discussion) * For Lule Sámi: We would like to have a parallel corpus interface with NT (text only). This presupposes better quality texts (__Trond, Børre__) ** Better Lule NT text still not made. * The list of good candicates: The longest (admin) texts. ** We need a ccat version of the script for analysing text, still keeping xml tags. (__Tomi__). Top-two priorities: # Trond and Saara to discuss with Lars. # Lars to add text to the server. # Tomi to prepare for the parallel corpus. !!Language recognition TODO: * turn on language recognition, skipping Finnish (__Saara__) ** Done, it seems.

We need the tag in front of compound parts beginning in a vowel or in two or more consonants. Compound parts beginning with one consonant are handled correctly. TODO: * Remove the ^ signs from the UPPER level (just like the TV and IV tags are removed today. (__Trond__) * Otherwise we wait with the following items until Sjur is back. * correct hyphenation of word boundaries and exceptions (__Sjur, Trond__) * add a possibility to upload whole documents for hyphenation (and also analysis, generation, etc) (__Saara__) * we should log all and every word/text uploaded/hyphenated/analyzed etc ** we'll do it, but it does not have first priority (__Saara__) !!!7. Linguistics !!General - hyphenation See discussion, open questions and decission in the [previous meeting memo.|/doc/admin/weekly/2006/Meeting_2006-04-03.html] TODO: * add all word boundaries (__Thomas__) ** Done: All sme except propernoun-file.
