         Subject: New ANC website, with frequency information

The American National Corpus has a new website, available at the same
address as before: http://AmericanNationalCorpus.org. The new site includes
the following:

- downloadable files containing frequency, bigram and trigram data for the
ANC 1st release data
- means for those who would like to contribute texts to be included in the
ANC to upload the files
- request for contributions of annotations of the ANC data
   -full instructions on using the BNC's XAIRA software with the ANC

We have also set up a discussion list, anc-discuss. Instructions on how to
join are available on the website.

Comments welcome!
