    Dear Aristomenis Thanopoulos,
    for tools, check out the sections "R&D Systems" and "Products"
    in our comprehensive information system LT World (www.lt-world.org),
    which also contains the contents of the ACL Natural Language
    Software Registry. For corpora and other resources, please refer
    to the section "Repositories", which contains pointers to
    distribution agencies and repositories for language data.

    regards,

       Gregor Erbach
