Hi all, David Coe and I are pleased to announce the "Debian Spelling Dictionaries and Tools Policy", as well as the new dictionaries-common package that will provide the infrastructure to implement it. This work has been under discussion since two weeks among maintainers of ispell related packages. This is a wider announcement, intendend to reach all the interested people we missed in our semi-private discussions.
To know more about this work, please visit: http://master.debian.org/~rafael/dictionaries-common Your comments are most welcome, especially those from the debian-policy people. BTW, I am not sure whether I have should followed or not Manoj's guidelines to post this to debian-policy, as the Spelling Policy is actually a sub-policy. I apologize in advance for any incovenience I can cause and ask you guys on debian-policy to tell me the correct procedure to follow. -- Rafael Laboissiere (Please Cc: any followup to me, as I am not reading -devel nor -policy now.)
