Hi Olivier,
I wasn't previously aware of a large collection of reports that
included versions in Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian and
Spanish. This would be a great resource to use for a variety of
experiments: do you know if there is a some part of these sites where
you can request bulk downloads?
If not, would it be possible for someone to write a spider and host
the corpora somewhere else for bulk download? Would there be
copyright issues, and if so could these be negotiated? If you have
experience of doing this or any suggestions, I would be very interested.
Best wishes,
Dominic
