Abstract

We present an upcoming web-based centre for information and documentation on language technology (LT) in Sweden and/or in Swedish. Some ways to collect and represent data using data harvesting and XML are suggested. Users providing data may choose one of four input modes, two of which will allow the user to edit existing documents at her own site. Thus we hope to facilitate data entry and inter-site communication, and reduce the amount of stale data. The entry modes use annotated HTML and an emerging XML-application, respectively.In conclusion, we propose that an XML-application in the field of LT would facilitate for the LT community to share information, and that automatic data harvesting will emerge as an important technique for building information centres in the future.
