I am interested in developing an NLP front-end to INGRES. Lest I reinvent: Is there any "stock" software which already does this? (INTELLECT does not *currently* accommodate INGRES; I've heard "DataTalker" mentioned as a possibility, but have no details--capabilities, company name, phone#, etc.) Re building an NLP front-end: Prolog's DCG's (Definite Clause Grammars) seem to provide an attractive tool to construct an NLP front-end. I would appreciate feedback re their effectiveness, and pointers to work done or being done relevant to this interest. I will be glad to summarize and post if the response merits it. -- Cris Kobryn +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Cris Kobryn UUCP: {sdcsvax|seismo}!esosun!cris | | Geophysics Division, MS/22 ARPA: esosun!cris@seismo.css.gov | | SAIC SOUND: (619)458-2697 | | 10210 Campus Point Drive | | San Diego, CA 92121 | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+

Their phone number is 415-841-3500, and I believe their address is 1759 Fifth Street, Berkeley. Founders are Jerrold Ginsparg and John Manferdelli. Product is good, and accommodates Ingres.
