Background

This SIGSEM working group was founded on March 12, 2008. The objectives of the working group are:

• providing test suites for textual entailments or specific semantic phenomena
• organising shared tasks (possibly in collaboration with SIGLEX/SemEval)

Meetings

• The first meeting is planned at STEP 2008
• The second meeting is planned during IWCS-8.
