I'm awfully sorry for posting in french, I only do because of my poor
english... and usually people do not care much about what I may want to
say.

Are there many persons working on computational linguistics in this list ?

I said that most of computational linguistics were made in Prolog and Lisp
because of the handly way you can use grammars in Prolog and the list
facilities in Lisp.

Actually, I believe Caml could be an excellent substitute for this two
languages in computational linguistics since it not has only list and
symbolic facilities but a lot of other useful features and librairies.  I
suppose Gerard Huet must agree, otherwise would not be developing in Caml,
would he ? 

It could be very interesting to know which languages you have been working
with, which features you find the most important and would like to see in
a linguistic library.
