Re: citations etc

Dear all,

  thanks for this Ilan.

@All. I had planned a telco for today as I will not be available for the 
next two weeks.

And here is my proposed definition for an attestation:

Attestation: An attestation is a reference to a source that proves that 
the lexical entry has a certain linguistic property (e.g. a sense).

I propose we talk at 13:00 today to touch base and see how we continue 
our discussion on attestation.

Talk to you later,

Philipp.
