Since last time

Polderland

  • situation mostly unchanged due to work on project that suddenly popped up.
  • InDesign Windows: completed except for removing trace code & final drop
  • OpenOffice: Papiamentu project accepted, planning now, start december
  • bug 645: we consider it solved unless proven otherwise
  • bug 679: solved except for absolute preference for user-hyphen over system hyphen
  • work on PackageMaker stuff started

Divvun

  • a lot of work on South Sámi and infrastructure last week
  • more linguistic bugs fixed, still some to go
  • still no progress on South Sámi - too much other work
  • 645 is ok in command line hyphenator, and not reproducible in ID with a lexicon from June. I should rerun the test with an updated lexicon, but it looks promising.

Bug status

Solved/cancelled

No new items.

To be solved/investigated by Divvun

Div Pld Description
621 xxx other hyphenator bugs. PB: not as much incorrect as well as weird-looking.
630 xxx Word (prefix) with hyphen is rejected - and suggested
652 xxx UPPERCASE-typos only get acronym-suggestions: VARI -> no sugg, vARI -> VÁRI as sugg; consequence of the sugg. mechanism, unresolvable
581 xxx consonant doubling => actual problem is suggestions with hyphens (split compound type); these can be blocked as suggestions, and thus be removed (they would still be recognised, though)

Under investigation by Polderland

Div Pld Description
645 xxx borgguhan-gihppagis gets the hyphen on the next line - very probably fixed in previous version. Confirmation with last version pending.
679 xxx Discretionary/soft hyphen not respected - repaired, repaired code to be dropped

Priority list

  1. Installer for Microsoft Office 2008 / Mac
  2. M+S request letter from the Divvun project
  3. InDesign proofing tools for Windows - almost completed

Next meeting

Next meeting (18.11.) at 10.00 Dutch/Norwegian time.
