Subject: Re: [codec] Large test data set!

Hi All:
I just found a data set that I would like to integrate with [codec] to
test the language package:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/familynamephon/
The test data file contains 837K German names (37MB) in a text file and
encodings in Cham (?) phonetics, Cologne phonetics, Metaphone, and Soundex.
I have no idea how long it would take to run a test for our language
encoders on this but I imagine making it an optional unit test. How do you
do THAT in Maven?
The data is covered (I think, I do not read German) by this license:
http://www.opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/1.0/
Being a native German speaker I can confirm that the license is actually
the Open Database License which can be found at the URL you provided.
Can we include the data file in our tests? The PDF describing the file?
Thank you,
Gary
Well, IANAL.
But if I understand the license correctly, according to paragraph 3 we
should be allowed to use the data as part of our tests and distribute
it. We have to adhere to the usage conditions defined in paragraph 4, so
we would have to add a note to our NOTICE.txt.
However, it will probably do no harm to ask at legal@.

Cham phonetics seems to be a special algorithm for encoding names. [1]
contains more background information about it (unfortunately also in
German). According to this page the name stems from a region in Bavaria.
You can find a PHP implementation of this algorithm in [2].
