Some of the ones who replied asked me to summarize to the list the responses
I got for Brill's tagger, so there it goes:
French: on a Swedish corpus with 80 000 words for the Stockolm-Umea Corpus
in order to provide a tagger for swedish to be used for educational purposes
at Goeteborg University. The results were satisfactory. Also I had a few
responses from people having trained Brill's tagger for French.
For both cases it seems that with a large pre-tagged corpus the results
are satisfactory.
