+##PANACEA##
+
+[PANACEA][1] is a EU funded project whose objective is to build a factory of Language Resources that automates the
+  stages involved in the acquisition, production, updating and maintenance of language resources required by 
+  MT systems, and by other applications based on Language Technologies, and within the time required. 
+The architecture of the factory platform is based on deploying NLP tools as Web Services (WS), 
+   using the SOAP or REST standards (the aim is to be as interoperable as possible). 
+PANACEA uses [Soaplab][2] as it provides a convenient way to generate WSs for command-line software 
+   (most NLP tools belong to this type). 
+Once the WSs are deployed users may want to combine them to create complex chains. 
+[Taverna][3] workflow editor and engine is the tool used in the platform to combine WSs. 
+This tool allows the user to create complex workflows with different kinds of WSs (SOAP, REST, secure WSs, etc.) 
+   within a GUI.
+
+The second version of the platform was presented during the second year project review which was held on 
+   February 29, at UPF premises in Barcelona, Spain. 
+It was headed by Kimmo Rossi, as EC Project Officer, and by Serge Sharoff (University of Leeds, U.K.) and 
+   Gregory Grefenstette (Exalead, France), as project reviewers. 
+The project development was positively evaluated and both the project Officer and the reviewers complimented 
+   the achievements presented while being constructively detailed in their remarks. 
+In special the review report stated that “The partners gave an impressive demonstration of the second versión 
+   of the integrated platform”.
