Here are my plans for the upcoming QaMoose-2.0 (speak-up if you see glaring holes and/or issues).
I will be adding DICT protocol to QaMoose so that we can access our newly created Wordlist. QaMoose will then function as a web-client capable of accessing a DICT server. I'm unsure yet if it will be hardcoded to our server only (via configuration of course) or user defined on the webpage to go access any dictd server out there (this is rather minor in the scope of things though). In my initial research of DICT (eons ago), the following links were saved, dict http://www.dict.org perl-server http://www.miranda.org/~jkominek/jiten perl-client http://search.cpan.org/author/NEILB/Net-Dict-2.07/ Emacs http://me.in-berlin.de/~myrkr/dictionary/index.html and are mentioned here in case someone has further interest or likes to see how I ended-up doing what I'm doing. Here is a bit more detail on my plans. 1. Keep all of QaMoose's functionality as is (ie. local mysql, etc). This is used primarily for people entering new words which they deem to be part of the vocabulary (ie. suggesting will still be there). 2. Public queries (ie. not admin approve/reject) will access the DICT server automatically. Admin approve/reject will, of course, probe the local mysql entries. 3. Add a means to take approved entries from the local mysql and either, a. Create a supplementary dictionary out of them for local use only which would require hand insertion into the golden wordlist b. Automate the process described in step-a via possibly either a cron job and/or user prompt via the web form. c. Look into a native DICT method to do this (will require more research into DICF and/or engaging with DICT folk about protocol enhancement to create an 'augment' method) Initially I will shooting for 3a (so as not to delay any further) and will work on 2.x which will include other options. This is no rocket science, I just wanted to be clear and verbose. I will post again on this topic once I have a test fixture in place. Comments ?
