Bug#573609: aspell-hsb: newer upstream version available
Jan Jeroným Zvánovec j...@zvano.net: thanks for your bugreport. I did not know about this web. Personally, I think it would be appropriate to first let the aspell maintainer know about it so he can update the version on the official aspell web pages: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/aspell/dict/hsb/ It would probably be a good idea to contact prof. Werner (who is both the upstream author and the packager of the current aspell dictionary) before submitting a newer version. I would not mind doing so myself, but unfortunately, there is not any license present either directly on the web pages you linked, or in the zip file with the dictionary data: http://www.uni-leipzig.de/%7Esorb/seiten/hsb/02/hsb_DE.zip Could you ask the maintainer of said web pages to publish a version with license? Alternatively: do you have his e-mail address (which is also not mentioned on the web pages)? Sadly, I do not know who maintains these pages. The address of the Institute, as well as of prof. Werner, is however published at: http://uni-leipzig.de/~sorb/ I assume the dictionary is intended to be GPL2+, but assuming is not sufficient in our case. The same dictionary is distributed by Mozilla, with attribution and licensing notices: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3956 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
