Many thanks for your job. I would like to contribute to the extension of the 
aspell dict, but, what sort of discipline do you propose? Concentrate on 
litterary texts? On the current arabic of the press? The technical jargon(s)? 
Distribute the tasks between different people? Product a document of advices 
(linguistics and tech:what to record, what files to send back, etc.) for 
contributors?
