5 Summary
</SectionTitle>
    <Paragraph position="0"> In this paper we presented a new and innovative discourse-level annotation project, the Penn Discourse TreeBank (PDTB), in which discourse connectives and their arguments are annotated, thereby defining a clear level of discourse structure that can be reliably annotated for a large corpus. Our inter-annotator results confirm our expectations of high agreement and annotation reliability.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="1"> At a later stage of the project, we plan to provide semantic characterizations of the arguments of connectives and resolve any cases of polysemy that might arise.</Paragraph>
