I think, it is a bit premature because our ideas do not seem to be clear. I
don't
really know myself how to go about the whole thing but I cannot imagine that
a phone conference would help just now.
As I promised myself all the time to list what ALLC offers but have been
too busy
I'll do it now (Harold, please correct me if I am mistaken). Perhaps somebody
could put ACH and ALLC offers into a table as a start.
programmes to support research
initiatives to support education
annual conferences (together with ACH)
busary award
student prize
Roberto Busa award (together with ACH)
the journal "Literary and Linguistic Computing"
Humanist (together with ACH)
Computing in the Humanities Working Papers
Furthermore:
relationship with several other organisations
participation in ACO*Hum
