-==== COST Action CA21167: "Universality, diversity and idiosyncrasy in language technology"
+===== WG3 1st Meeting Minutes - 2023-03-17 =====
-WG3 Meeting 2023-03-17 Minutes ====
+==== Session 1 ====
+.45–11.00 	Introduction to WG3 (slides)
+.00–11.30	Brainstorming on ideas and expectations
+== Discussion questions: ==
+  * What is most important for you in multilingual and cross-lingual NLP?
+  * What activities do you think we should prioritize?
+  * How can we work together to make progress towards our goals?
+== Points raised: ==
+  * Large language models are most important
+  * Articulating linguistic theories underlying tools
+  * Defining idiosyncrasy and diversity
+  * The user perspective is important
+  * Supporting low-resource languages through cross-lingual technology
+  * Supporting low-resource languages through annotation tools
+  * Supporting low-resource languages through data collection
+  * Supporting low-resource languages with semantics
+  * Tools for all languages – start with morphology
+  * Low-resource language is not a homogeneous concept
+  * Building resources for specific languages (Serbian)
+  * Linking corpus resources between languages
+  * Standardized tools applicable to different languages
+  * Evaluation of tools – coordinate with other WGs
+  * Tracking evaluation status for different types of tools
+  * Improved benchmarking and experimental design
+  * Organize shared tasks
+.30–12.00	Initial discussion on documentation of tools
+== Discussion questions: ==
+  * Which types of tools do we want to include?
+  * Where do we want to keep the documentation?
+  * How do we create this documentation/inventory?
+== Points raised: ==
+  * A huge multidimensional matrix
+  * A shared repository
+  * Tools shared between typologically similar languages
+  * Consider end users
+  * Too many languages have nothing – document what is missing rather than what exists
+  * Connect to CLARIN
+  * Flagship project on MWE
+  * Include all tools or be selective?
+  * What about commercial tools?
+  * What about tools without documentation?
+== WG tasks emerging from the discussion: ==
+  * Define multidimensional taxonomy of tools for documentation
+  * Define infrastructure and procedure for creating documentation
