Yes, I did--but as Gilles mentions, we're not particularly rigid 
about enforcing a deadline or even a real code-freeze if there are 
obvious reasons otherwise. Certainly you have to draw the line 
somewhere, but important fixes/changes/features are more likely to 
get accepted by a developer vote than minor things (that could be 
added to the next release).

Actually, I'm about to expire the mainline tomorrow--this won't alter 
the htdig-3-2-x branch, but it will at least offer other options. 
It's obvious up to a vote whether we want to switch development CVS 
trees back to the mainline and revisit the htdig-3-2-x branch as we 
get to 3.2.0 final candidates.

This would certainly help in meeting your calendar goal. I'd be glad 
to bring you up to speed on what needs to happen for that. 
Fortunately some of the hooks are left from my previous attempt. 
(i.e. there shouldn't be much need for autoconf/autoheader changes.)

I'd be glad to point towards what needs to happen. The first thing is 
to take a look at the mifluz example code to see how the word 
indexing and searching is currently performed. I'd then take a look 
at the htcommon/HtWord* classes and see what needs to be changed 
here. This is a large extent of the ht://Dig side of the mifluz API. 
Most of the htword/ and db/ directories are just the mifluz code 
itself.

Ah. As you're well aware, if we don't develop it ourselves, it must 
be GPL compatible. I'd be interested to know if there are any 
Asian-aware "spelling checkers" or Asian-aware word processors that 
parse words under the GPL or the like.
