This Monday (18.12.06) at 18:30, Haifa Linux Club will gather to hear Asaf
Bartov talk about
The Ben Yehuda Project
Project Ben-Yehuda aims to make accessible the classics of Hebrew
literature (poetry and prose at first, and then essays etc.) to the reader
of Hebrew. For that purpose, the literary works are converted to a format
that is readable and searchable on the Internet. The project is intended
to be of use for both amateurs and scholars of literature. It is inspired
by the parallel English project started by Professor Michael S. Hart
(which has recently started bringing texts in other languages as well)
called Project Gutenberg.
The Lecture would cover the aims of the project as well as the techincal
problems the Ben Yehuda have to deal with (e.g., lack of a free OCR in
Hebrew that supports diacritics).
We meet in Taub building, room 3. For instructions see:

Attendance is free, and you are all invited!
