I'm going to make a comment on the following internacional meetings on Computational Linguistics:

• Association for Computational Linguistics Conference 2007. At first, I'd like to talk about what ACL is. The ACL has something to do with peolple who are closely related to "working on problems involving natural language and computation". "An annual meeting is held each summer in locations where significant computational linguistics research is carried out". But, we can't forget about the regional associations which are related to the ACL. Here, we have to mention the EACL (The European Chapter of the ACL) and the NAACL ( The North American Chapter of the ACL). I'm going to talk a little bit more about the last one in the next paragraph.  Continuing with this year ACL's  conference, it will take place in Prague from 23 to 30 of June. The main conference will be given between 25^th  and 27^th  of June. These are the people who will take part in it: John Carrol (General conference chair), Eva Hajicova (Local organization chair), Anna Kotesovcova (Secretariat) and Priscilla Rasmussen (Registration).
• Human Language Technologies Conferece: The Annual Conference of the North American Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics 2007. Rochester (NY) will be the venue for this conference from 22 to 27 of April. We can read the names of the conference organizers if we click here and the schedule in this website.
• Finally, I'm going to talk about the "XXIII Congreso Anual de la Sociedad Española para el Procesamiento del Lenguaje Natural". In this case, it will be hold in September, in Sevilla. One of the objectives of this society is to spread the investigation and development carried out by the researchers related to Natural Language Processing. These the themes that will be discussed: Automatic Translation, Linguistic, Mathematical and Psicolinguistic models of the language, Industrial Aplications of the NLP and Authomatic Analysis of the Textual Contents, among others.
