[matrix] Pronoun Relations

[Ann Copestake]

we talked about this in Norway.  It is inconsistent with supporting any 
standard approach to anaphora resolution, which is something we have to do.  
if you want to make this change, therefore, you have to come up with an 
algorithm for anaphora resolution which will work when there are no overt 
pronouns to resolve.

I'm afraid that once you go above very small scale systems, you'll find the 
need for elaborate transfer rules in many places, so this is not a persuasive 
argument.
