Dear Daniel, Sorry if I seemed offensive; it was not my intention. We respect and admire your work (we refered it in a paper). I know LanguageTool *does* work; I only highlighted the broad coverage achieved by CoGrOO; look, it's not a miracle: our group have had up to ten collaborators (now, only six) working by almost two years and half. A question: is your current version of LanguageTool using some kind of syntactic parsing, shallow parsing or chunking (like us)? Because some error rules need this information to achieve correct classification. Server side of CoGrOO was developed in perl, and client is in Java. CoGrOO was not launched yet, but it can be tested by http://cogroo.incubadora.fapesp.br -> área de testes -> detector de Erros, and it is going to be licensed by a free software license (probably, LGPL).

I'm not sure what you refer to, but LanguageTool *does* work, and it's even integrated into OOo. Of course there are many errors it cannot detect yet, but that's by design, because the rules define what an error is, not what a correct sentence is. So the main difference is that is that LanguageTool is available for English and German, and that it's written in Java, and that it actually is available now under LGPL.
