Latin and Greek Treebank Data at Perseus

This is basically a linkdump for my own future reference, but I don't begrudge the project a little (er, very little) extra publicity, either.

A "treebank" is a database of syntactical structures used by linguists. Thanks to a post on the Stoa Consortium, I found out that the Perseus Project is soliciting help in compiling such a database for the numerous Greek and Latin texts that it contains. They suggest that it could be incorporated into a classroom project.

The Stoa Consortium, by the way, is the wave of the future. It is a collaborative effort dedicated to finding ways to integrate technology and classics, and has an open-source attitude.
