08/09/2010 - We have created an SWI-Prolog version of the FrameNet 1.3 database, with some integrations by the organizers of the SemEval 2010 task "Linking Events and their Participants in Discourse". Download the zipped folder here! The files contained in the folder are described in the README.

07/09/2010 - We have made available for download The Little Prince in the Venetan translation by Nicoletta Penello. The text has been further revised and normalized by Prof. Rodolfo Delmonte. The document is available both in pdf text-only version (download) and in the verticalized, manually PoS tagged version (download). Other translations of the novel in 150 languages can be found at this link
