The official webpage for the first official meeting of our project in Nov 2011 was

Meanwhile the big recent news is that:

1. Alexandre is coming to the Bay Area, for Adam's ACM SUMO Course  and talking at SRI.

2. Francis Bond added our OpenWN-PT to his Open Multilingual WordNet online tool so it's online, searchable, downloadable and "linked" to SUMO!
