Just to let you know that the test set is available for download on
that task's website:
http://www.cs.york.ac.uk/semeval-2012/task1/
Later today we will upload a few baseline systems as well.
Best,
Lucia, Sujay and Rada
We'll upload the baselines soon, we just didn't have the time to write
a proper readme file explaining them yet. If you want to start having
a look at the results, I'm attaching the rankings for the trial data
as given by the 3 baselines, the readme file will follow soon.
