Abstract
Our paper deals with an on-going Project in the framework of which, by means of open-source and free tools, a family of web corpora is being created that would (to a large extend) deserve the designation of being “comparable”. A summary of results after the first stage of the Project is given, and experiences with the tools are commented.
