A story of a finished Spell checker

[Munzir Taha <munzirtaha at newhorizons dot com dot sa>]

[19 Mar 2004] Translate.org.za in collaboration with Jason Githeko have 
produced the first Kiswahili spellchecker. The team was able to marry the 
development skills of Dwayne Bailey from the Translate project with the word 
list built by Githeko. In less than a day the first version was produced. 
This collaboration was made possible by the Africa Source Free and Opensource 
developers meeting.
