Corpus infra remake

Børre's latest work.

There are two repositories: bound and free, containing orig. What about the gold standard directory, which is also bound and free?

bound/orig/
     /goldst-orig/
free/orig/
    /goldst-orig/

The upload dir is full of files (roughly 90 orig files). These should be converted. We also want to get the corpus summary updated, as they used to be.

TODO:

• only access from victorio + XServe (Børre)
• write access only for corpus maintainers (Børre)
• read access for the rest of our teams + outsiders who have signed the corpus usage agreement (Børre)
• maintain the whole rcs history (convert from rcs files to svn, maybe via cvs) ( Børre)
• convert or move the files in the upload dir to the real corpus repo ( Børre)
• turn on corpus summary crontab (Børre)

License

TODO:

• install & configure the Unison news reader (Sjur, Trond)

Corpus interface

TODO:

• make a simple web search form for the UiT corpus repository (Ciprian, X)
  • before May
• check out the new version of CWB with Unicode support (Ciprian)
  • fall

Makefile + tag simplification

TODO:

1. test that the output from the new transducers is identical to the old one ( Tomi)
2. working session to go through the remaining issues: 16.3. (Tomi, Sjur)
   1. done, but we should have one more
3. write new build commands (Sjur, Tomi)
4. when the new build infrastructure works as it should, delete the old ones ( Sjur, Tomi)

General list

• licensing of our source code
  • the discussion goes on in news — needs to be finished soon
• fit repository:
  • maintenance issues
  • FOSS policy and communication of it
  • what do we actually want to support?
  • structure of repository

Trond will write an e-mail to the fit group explaining our situation.

To accommodate future enhancements in different directions (in rough order of importance):

1. test bench for all parts of our language technology efforts
   1. test bench enhanced, but not yet complete
2. improve Forrest i18n support with static sites
3. reorganise the documentation:
   1. differ between target groups
   2. get better grouping
   3. decide what to write in Forrest and what in wiki (cf. Apertium and http://xixona.dlsi.ua.es/apertium/) for a similar split)
   4. update/add missing parts
4. migrate lexc lexicons to XML, splitting the task
   1. Name lexica (the Name project)
   2. Dictionaries (already in XML, task is to integrate them)
   3. At least migrate the lexc open POSes (Komi as a pilot case)
5. change the look of the documentation web
6. corpus content moved to Max Planck repositories? Norsk språkbank?
7. update infrastructure to allow content-restricted spellers for special target groups

TODO:

• make the new SL Server services functional: ( Børre)
  • group calendars
• Jabber server and group chats: user name issues + lost chat history ( Børre)
• set up corpus mirroring on the XServe again (Børre)
• restructure and clean the script/ directory, using subdirs to categorise the scripts (Ciprian)
  • please act as suggested, cf comments in the news group
• infrastructure remake: ( Børre, Ciprian, Sjur, Tomi, Trond)
  • more modularised make / build infra (prepare for smn, sms, sjd, others)
  • merge gt, kt and st into one
  • modularised preprocess and spellrelax
  • alternatives to make:
    • SCons
    • makepp
    • Maven (for java-projects)
    • CMake - Sjur looked at it, and have started to experiment
• make a test-all target that runs all tests we have (Ciprian, Sjur, Trond)
  • delayed until we have restructured the make/build process
• define and document testing routines (Ciprian, Sjur, Trond)
  • delayed until we have restructured the make/build process

• test editing of the xml files. If ok, then: ( Sjur, Thomas, Trond)

• convert propernoun-($lang)-lex.txt to a derived file from common xml files ( Sjur, Tomi, Saara)
• implement data synchronisation between risten.no and the cvs repo, and possibly other servers (ie the G5 as an alternative server to the public risten.no - it might be faster and better suited than the official one; also local installations could be treated the same way)
• start to use the xml file as source file
• clean terms-sme.xml such that all names have the correct tag for their use (e.g. @type=secondary) (Thomas, linguists)
• merge placenames which are errouneously in different entries: e.g. Helsinki, Helsingfors, Helsset (linguists)
