Semantics of Ancient Hebrew Database. A cooperative research project involving an number of European centers with coordination provided by Leiden. Chair Exe. Com. is Takamitsu Muraoka. It is not the aim of the project to add a new kind of dictionary to the already existing ones, nor to tackle a semantic study on the basis of a special method or methods. Its purpose is to prepare a tool which can be a useful inducement to further semantic research. It will provide a badly needed survey of the results and arguments found in scholarly literature. Thus it will prevent for everyone who uses it the loss of valuable time. Moreover it is planned in such a way that it will be clear not only what work has already been done, but also which workable way of approach has not been used for the study of the lexeme in question. In this way it will stimulate future research by drawing attention to what needs to be done and it will act as a stimulus to fresh, original research. It goes without saying that particularly research in which modern types of approach are used will be encouraged.

Project "eL" The XML Leningrad Codex (Kirk Lowery & Patrick Durusau) The goal of the XML Leningrad Codex markup project is to produce a fresh, from scratch "mirror image" of the Leningrad Codex of the Hebrew Bible, encoded at the character/glyph level in UNICODE, which will be suitable for use in "XML-aware" applications (word processors, database engines, web-applications). Such an encoded text can be used for an infinite variety of purposes and will allow for collaborative projects via the Internet to "pyramid" knowledge, encourage the "reuse" of basic data and analysis, extend the value of limited human and financial resources, and reduce duplication of effort.
