We organize <br /> international workshops every other year. This is an &#039;on&#039; year and we <br /> just finished our workshop at Salt Fork, Ohio <br /> (linguistics.osu.edu/inlg2008/). Over 50 people attended, with <br /> many new faces. We colocated with the 2009 referring expression <br /> generation challenge 2009: (www.itri.brighton.ac.uk/research/reg08). <br /> <br /> We lend our name in endorsing natural language generation (NLG) <br /> related events when we are asked and the topic of the event seems <br /> appropriate to the NGL community. This past year we sponsored the <br /> second workshop on Multimodal Output Generation, MOG 2008, in <br /> Aberdeen, Scotland in April (http://www.csd.abdn.ac.uk/ <br /> ~ivdsluis/mog2008/); and Using Corpora for NLG: Language Generation <br /> and Machine Translation (www.nltg.brighton.ac.uk/ucnlg/). <br /> <br /> This year we had a referendum to choose among several alternative for <br /> how to bring our constitution in line with the ACL guidelines. We had <br /> about a 20% response rate. The now compliant revised document is on <br /> our web page. <br /> <br /> We have been accumulating and posting the papers of old workshops of <br /> any sort that involve NLG on http://www.siggenarchive.org.uk/. <br /> <br /> Finally, please could you remove the newsletter link from our entry on your sig page - we haven&#039;t had a newsletter for quite a while now!</div>
