A long time ago you could type rae2.es/palabra and it would give you the 
definition of palabra. The rae2.es service was shut down. And then the 
RAE implemented rae.es/palabra . They bully and steal. No wonder RAE 
rhymes with SGAE.

I know they are right in that publicly-funded knowledge should be made 
public, but I would never sign a petition promoted by a linguistic 
nationalist who changes the name of the "Universitat Autònoma de 
Barcelona" (the only official name of the university) into "Universidad 
Autónoma de Barcelona".  I'd rather fight for the small languages being 
substituted by big languages as Spanish or English. I'd rather let the 
promoters of Spanish sort their matters out themselves...
