   Database Package
       The  database package is	a complete installation	for WordNet 3.0	users.
       It includes the	3.0  database  files,  source  code  for  the  WordNet
       browsers	 and  library,	and documentation.  The	other packages are not
       included	- they must be downloaded and installed	separately.

       Note that with this version of WordNet for Unix platforms, only	source
       code  is	 provided.  Users should carefully read	the README and INSTALL
       files for detailed information on compiling WordNet and dependencies.

   Prolog Database Package
       The WordNet 3.0 database	files are available in this package in a  Pro-
       log-readable  format.   Documentation describing	the file format	is in-
       cluded.	This package is	only downloadable in compressed	tar file  for-
       mat, although once unpackaged it	can be used from Windows systems since
       the  files  are	in ASCII.  Many	Windows	utilities, such	as WinZip, can
       deal with a compressed tar file.

   Sense Map Package
       To help users automatically convert 2.1 noun and	verb senses  to	 their
       corresponding  3.0 senses, we provide sense mapping information in this
       package.	 This package contains files to	map polysemous and  monosemous
       words,  and documentation that describes	the format of these files.  As
       with the	Prolog database, this package is  only	downloadable  in  com-
       pressed tar format, but the files are also in ASCII.

NOTES
       The  lexicographer  files and grind(1WN)	program	are not	generally dis-
       tributed.

       All of the packages described above may not be available	at the time of
       release of the 3.0 database package.
