Example: Verbmobil II

In the following example taken from the Verbmobil II corpus a number of compulsory parameters are not included. For instance the description of the acoustical environment was the same for all recordings and therefore described in the documentation of the corpus. Although this is legitimate in this case we would strongly recommend including such redundant information into the recording protocol to facilitate the browsing of corpora contents as described above.
