My current holy grail is my attempt to convert a Shipibo (an indigenous Peruvian language)-to-Spanish dictionary into a Shipibo-to-English dictionary. The pdf I have (available freely on archive.org) isn't a great scan (though I think it'd be a heck of a lot easier than some of the handwritten examples they show). Layout (2-columns) along with header/footers can cause some headaches, but it is all Latin script. This seems to fall on its face pretty badly (not even a couple of pages in), so my search continues. (The other major problem I'm having is trying to separate out Shipibo definitions/examples from the Spanish ones, and only translating the Spanish to English...so pretty complex I guess. I've been taking fresh stabs at this project every few months when I see OCR/LLM news pop up and continue to be disappointed)

Once you have managed to get the data out and structured, you may want to check out dict.press. It's a dictionary publishing and management tool (which I maintain). Multiple widely used Indian dictionary projects run on it.

The combination of the moving goalposts for donations (they changed it from $1000 goal to $4000 after hitting their goal[0]) and the fact that they have have a large donation like this pending but simply haven't completed the paperwork kind of rubs me the wrong way a little bit.

The delay is on our side while we wait for regulatory approvals (India) for cross-border disbursements, I must clarify. The issues are described in the post I linked [2].

We've allocated $60,000 to NTP from FLOSS/fund [1]. It happened in May, but the disbursal is pending owing to paperwork [2]. We hope it'll go through in the next couple of months.

Been self-hosting for a while. Amazing set of features and web and mobile apps work flawlessly.

That's so nifty! Thanks :-)

Do all the tools use TXT records? Or are there any which use LOC, NAPTR, etc?

knadh · 8 months ago
Yep, all tools return formatted strings as TXT records.

I wrote about something tangential a few months ago; the need to have curation-based alternate forms of discovery on the WWW.
