Newsletter 3 was sent out in early April with info primarily about SRW, tutorials, system demonstrations, workshops and accommodation. Newsletter 4 was sent out in early May with the main aim to provide information about registration, accommodation reservation and program including invited speakers. Newsletter 5 was sent out in early June mainly with reminders about registration and accommodation, instructions for presenters, information on internet access at the conference site, information on the conference organization and a list of sponsors.
Dissemination has been through mailing lists including Corpora, CLUK, SIGANN, ELSNET, SIGIR, SIG Semitic, LR egroup, NoDaLi, Bio NLP, SentProc, AMLAP, ISCA Speech, SIGSEM, Connectionists list announcer, and to the ACL membership via Priscilla.

We are going to send a nationwide release in early July to major daily newspapers (e.g. "Dagens Nyheter", "Svenska Dagbladet", "Expressen", "Aftonbladet", Göteborgs-Posten, Sydsvenskan, Metro), local newspapers ("Upsala Nya Tidning", Uppsalatidningen, Arbetarbladet, Enköpings-posten), Swedish radio stations ("Radio Uppland", Studentradion) , TV-stations and news (Rapport, Aktuellt, TV4, ABC), the local university press as well as to journals and periodicals on computers and language ("Ny Teknik", "All about language", Språktidningen).
