!!!3. Documentation - divvun.no

The giellatekno site is converted to the Forrest format, and is in principle ready for
publication. Trond has to read through it and do some QA/editing before being released.

The standing invitation remains: Document what you do, when you do it.

!!!4. Corpus gathering

Børre, Trond and Sjur had their meeting, and the Helsinki contract is quite good as it is. There are
some points still to be discussed. We'll continue this week.

!!!5. Corpus infrastructure

Do documentation.

!!Naming conventions and directory structure

The idea was to continue in the newsgroup, but nothing has happened. We'll bring this up next week
in Helsinki instead.

!!!6. Linguistics

!!North Sámi

* New place names (to be) received, should be added to our lexicons
* three-part compounds and oslolaš issue still open
* we should create a new missing list

!!Lule Sámi

When do we get the lexicon from Anders Kintel?

* All the major POSes have been covered
* closed POSes should be checked
* compounding and derivation

!!!7. Speller infrastructure

!!aSpell

Write documentation here as well.

Munch-list is working, see above. Needs more affixes before it is useful, cf the size
discussion. See [previous meeting memo|/doc/admin/weekly/2005/Meeting_2005-08-15.html].

!!MS Office spellers

Nothing new, see [previous meeting memo|/doc/admin/weekly/2005/Meeting_2005-08-15.html].

!!OpenOffice.org

Requires MySpell (probably hunspell and even Aspell in the future), we want to maintain
only one main source file for all spellers. Others are doing it, the question is only
__how__. This is the goal to be investigated by Børre and Tomi.

For pointers, see the [previous meeting memo|/doc/admin/weekly/2005/Meeting_2005-08-15.html].

!!!8. Other

!!Helsinki gathering

Program draft available at [/doc/admin/physical_meetings/helsinki-2005-08.html]

Trond and Sjur are going to finish it this week.

To bring from Kautokeino:

* headphones
* battery pack for Sjur
* registration money for FSMNLP

!!Technical issues

* The mac os / perl bug (at least Trond has it):
** utf8 "\xC4" does not map to Unicode at /Users/trond/gt/script/preprocess line 82.
    This msg did not show up in 10.3 (perl 5.8.1), but does so in 10.4 (perl 5.8.6).
    It is probably a perl - OS mismatch. 
* 25 open bugs - too much! Have a look at what you can fix.
