I just downloaded the file listed there and their license clearly
notes NOT to use their terms and/or translations - so what we have
now will be deleted. Now let's regroup and see what we can do here;
I have the following suggestions (while talking to people on IRC),
1. Get Hafid's list of words from all sources other than Microzift.
Hafid can you mail me those files ?
2. Do a cross-reference of what we have in Gnome and KDE. Meaning
read-in KDE and then print out any terms that are also in Gnome
into a 'common' file.
3. Use the FOLDOC (http://foldoc.doc.ic.ac.uk/foldoc/contents.html);
this contains alot of technical NON-RELEVANT terms which would
be of great interest and use for the 'wordlist' project, but would
not (for the major part in my opinion) help the Gnome/KDE guys.
Ahmad, see value in this ? Something to tackle in the future as
a separate dictionary ?
Salam.
