Re: Sonnet

Jacob Rideout wanted to developed a full-featured language engine, including spellchecker, grammar checker, even with language detection.

But we already had KSpell2 in KDE3, which was then transformed into "Sonnet" in KDE 4. So our current version of Sonnet only does spellchecking, no fancy grammar checker, no language detection and no other cool stuffs, but we _still have_ Sonnet inside kdelibs and the spellchecker is working just fine.

AFAIK Jacob Rideout's work never made it into kdelibs. All the interesting stuff is in a separate svn branch: http://websvn.kde.org/branches/work/sonnet-refactoring/.

Would be great if somebody would pick up the work and finish it. Maybe a good Google SoC project?

I might find some time for sonnet magic if I get accepted for GSoC project on Lokalize or KNotify... ;)
