OpenLogos

Over on my translation tools hat, I've been looking at OpenLogos, a very old commercial machine translation program that has recently gone open-source.

Here's the thought that struck me earlier this week: the intermediate parse structure contains something very like a semantic structure. Might it not be possible to "translate" English into a Class::Declarative nodal structure? At least in limited domains?

I'm just going to leave that thought on the table here, and back away slowly.
