F L A R E N E T - C L A R I N Standards Event at N E E R I 09

30 September 2009, Helsinki

During the NEERI 09 event we will devote the first day to talk about a few standardization processes that currently take place. In an open debate we want to present their state, their applicability and their possible limitations. CLARIN needs to take standardization serious, but also see where the bottlenecks are.
