http://www.dict.org/links.html tells how to subscribe to the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list. This is the mailing list for the "dict.org community". > And I'm still waiting a response from him.

RFC 2229 already says "By default, the text of the definitions MUST be composed of characters from the UCS character set [ISO10644] using the UTF-8 [RFC2044] encoding." Several existing DICT server implementations already serve Unicode databases using UTF-8 (see, for example, http://freedict.org/en/). RFC 2229 also explains how to add experimental extensions to the protocol. If you implement such extensions, and post about them on [EMAIL PROTECTED], then you'll probably get a lot of feedback regarding how useful they are and how well they interact with existing DICT protocol implementations. _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list Ietf@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
