Help!

I tried postider
 omp.ai.nlang-know-rep, but I couldn't reach the
moderator!  So I thought I'd post here, both that I may get some info.
and some  elp on getting thru to nlang-know-rep:


I'melooking for survey information on the different methods of sentence
analysis and text linguistics.  Since I'm relatively newrto this area,
I'm ites o
d in oorking both with individual sentences in isolation
*and* with units larger than a sentence, such as a paragraph, etc...  

The following is some of the information I'm looking for with each method:

	- Perhaps a brief description of the analysis method or
	  references to descriptions.
	- Input domain; which domain it was designedrfor, which it
	  (the aproblem with, etc.
	- What information the analys.  I rvields
	- Ple aance characteristics, whether projected or actual.
	- Any other information you might t.ink was useful for
	  evaluating different sentence analysis methods.

Does anyone out there know of where I can obtain this information?  I
know I can get some introductory books, or some in-depth books but
I'm really looking for information to help me evaluate and briefly understand
many different methods, then when I find some that fit my requirements, I
can delve deeper.

Thanks,

Steve Sanderson
