Background
As a supplementary component of the WeSearch project, there is funding for collaborative activities towards semantic interface corroboration, i.e. fixing (in various possible senses) salient properties of the downstream interface to the ERG (and, in principle, similar grammars).
As a central element of this line of work, the project team will host a by-invitation meeting of experts, starting in the morning of Monday, April 30 and lasting until the afternoon of Wednesday, May 2. At least some participants will arrive the preceding day and will gather informally at the meeting site starting sometime in the afternoon of Sunday, April 29, already.
The meeting will be held at Hankø Fjordhotell, close to the city of Fredrikstad and both Moss Lufhavn Rygge (RYG) and Oslo Lufthavn Gardermoen (OSL). Upon completion of the main meeting, sometime late afternoon on May 2, some of the participants will head on to Oslo and stay for another night or two. Stephan is prepared to make accomodation arrangements for everyone, both at Hankø and in Oslo.

Stephan will make arrangements to meet those flying into Gardermoen (OSL) and will then drive down to Hankø. We expect to arrive at the hotel between 15:00 and 16:00 on Sunday.

Programme
In the tradition of earlier meetings, participants will determine the programme jointly, possibly over drinks already on Sunday evening. Further below on this page, we will jointly (and incremetally) construct the agenda for the meeting.
As one source of inspiration, say to derive a list of (semantic) phenonema that are either exceptionally well analyzed in the current ERG or maybe deserve further thinking, we suggest the collection of sentences compiled by Yusuke Miyao and colleagues for the 2008 Workshop on Parser Evaluation Across Frameworks. A gold-standard Redwoods treebank for these sentences is available as part of the ERG trunk. UiO will make available graphical renderings of the syntacto-semantic annotations in other frameworks prior to the meeting.
Candidate Topics
- towards a catalogue of stable semantic analyses (and documentation)
a list of 'known bugs' (e.g. degree specifiers on quantifiers; scopal arguments in coordination: she can and must sing)
- revisit (unrealized) plans from the past, e.g. fewer quantifiers, type distinctions for 'unbound' variables, non-restrictive relatives
- updates on information structure (emily)
- negation in a cross-linguistic perspective (emily)
- anaphor links (ann)
- underspecification of modifier attachment
- the continuum between logical-form semantics vs. (syntacto-semantic) dependencies
- requirements of composition vs. interface aspects
