Next: Omri Abend with a survey of the (huge) number of new semantic annotation schemes proposed in recent years #acl2017nlp

I wish there were better incentives for people to write survey papers

main difference between "syn" and "sem" is respect for *distributional* behavior

things we agree on: frames, predicates, argument / adjunct distinction

things we disagree on: who should annotate, how much do we honor / couple to syntax, how much do we specialize to individual languages?

Bonnie Webber: "Scope?" Abend: trend has been towards underspecification; scope & other formal phenomena as another layer on top
