[gentoo-dev] app-dict team needs help

Hello guys,

the app-dict team is almost-non existent altho it provides one of the most 
core features for our daily desktop usage as without dictionaries and spell 
checking we could not imagine much work nowdays.

So what is needed there:

aspell - all various bugs around, per language file bumps here and there, 
cleanup and provide new eclass for aspell packages, current one is needlesly 
complex.

myspell(hunspell): finish migration to myspell-r1 on the remaining packages, 
find more upstreams and include the lang files into the distribution. Most 
important here is that we have dicts for english from 2007 and they were 
updated a lot in last 6 years when i check the git in libreoffice dicts (but 
there is no upstream indication).

stardict: trivial bugs around but i don't use stardict.

I check this herd as I need it for nice and compfy libreoffice usage, but 
mostly I am not devoting much to it, so if you guys happen to have spare 
cycles, please take look for your languages/etc and updated&cleanup, also if 
you happen to fill stablereq, just cc arches directly there.

Cheers

Tom

Hello Dennis,

Currently there are 18 open bugs [1], so just looking into them would be
nice.

Checking if the ebuilds could be moved to latest eapi and cleaned up might
be good.

Opening stabilisation bug requests for various dictionaries that are for 3+
years in testing is also good idea :-)

Also if you have any diffs just sent the mail to me or proxy-maint@g.o and
we shall include it in cvs (gosh I want git and gerrit).

Cheers

Tom

   ok, I'd plan to bump stardict first, there is already one in gentoo-zh
overlay
will reach you when I'm ready..
   Later I will go through the bugs..

   I'm using git, can send you patches, but I'm not sure how we can
cooperate with gerrit.
