| "text": "I am honoured to write the first few words of these Proceedings, as General Chair of COLING/ACL 2006 in Sydney, Australia. As we know, this is just the third time in their history that the two traditionally major events in Computational Linguistics, COLING and ACL -organised respectively by ICCL (International Committee on Computational Linguistics) and ACL (the Association for Computational Linguistics)are joined in one combined conference, after Stanford in 1984 and Montreal in 1998. I was lucky to attend both those wonderful events and would have never imagined to be \"in charge\" of the next one, the first of the new millennium! When I accepted, I knew I didn't have real work to do in this position, apart from mediate -if necessary -among the several \"real workers\", the various Chairs. I must say now that my work was even easier than foreseen, because of the wonderful teamwork of all the COLING/ACL group.", |

Part of its character will be due to the location, for the first time -for both conferences -in Australia. For this reason we decided to have a member of AFNLP (the Asian Federation of Natural Language Processing) on the Advisory Board and to give particular attention and visibility to the Asia-Pacific context, communities and languages. We sincerely thank both the AFNLP-Nagao Fund for providing financial support for those presenting Asian NLP research, and ALTA (the Australasian Language Technology Association) for their local support.", |
