Hey,

>Ok, I think your timeline looks ok, but I'd like more information on
>the 'difficulty meter' -- how you plan to set ratings, etc.

After having a chat about this on irc and then re-reading what's on the todo
list on http://wiki.apertium.org/wiki/Geriaoueg I realise I actually meant
frequency meter (and therefore makes much more sense to me now).

>From what I understand from what was said on irc; a larger "difficulty" is
one where words are less frequent on a page. The frequency meter would be
the maximum percentage of frequency and therefore anything with a frequency
percentage which is equal or lower than the percentage set will be "tagged"
by the dictionary. So for example lets say that there is a page with the
following:

word1: 13 (52%)
word2: 6 (24%)
word3: 3 (12%)
word4: 2 (8%)
word5: 1 (4%)

If the percentage is set at something like 34% then word2, word3, word4 and
word5, would show a dictionary entry; and if the percentage is set at 8%
then only word4 and word5 would show.

Am I right with this so far? Would this be how you would expect it to work?

(If you're wondering how the percentage would be entered I was thinking of
using a slider bar as seen at http://jqueryui.com/demos/slider/)

Ok then, I'll try that. I'm sure you've already seen the Sinatra Web Proxy
thing I'm working on. I will more than likely keep the design of Geriaoueg
similar to that. The final look of it would be so that the "url bar" doesn't
block the webpage too much (though it should be easy to get to if the user
needs to change a setting or type a new webpage)

>Also, I think we'll require something a little more formal than the
>Beerware licence - I assume you're not too sold on it?

Like I've said before I'm open to suggestions to what I should do with it. I
didn't want to leave it without a license (ORIGINAL WORK DO NOT STEAL) and
this was more or less a placeholder for it.
