the YDL list: state of the state

[Derick Centeno]

Owen:
The fun we have here is a really nice aspect of this list.  You, Clint,  
Norberto, Joe and others ... each and all add to this marvelous  
experience.
What makes it work, of course, is your wonderful sense of humor, which  
each of you have a  really unique and sometimes uniquely twisted spin  
on.
Makes everything electric, interesting and unpredictable.

Interesting challenge on the grammar engine.  I sadly haven't been in  
Linux for a while not on the PB I have anyway.  I've already been  
through the process of partitioning the 80GB drive and all that it  
entails only to find the YDL installation process choke in the same  
place two or three times.  I came to suspect the ISOs I downloaded and  
burned were incomplete in some way.  Maybe the current ISOs are in  
better shape?

In any event, I was speaking of ximian Evolution from memory and the  
features it has, or I remember it having, which may not be the same  
thing.
 From your comment, I must assume it is not.

However according to the following reference, Abiword has a grammar  
engine:

0,3800004946,39130314,00.htm?PROCESS=show&ID=20047642&AT=39130314

Regarding writing a "how to", as soon as some kinks are straightened  
out on the YDL FAQ site (kinks which unfortunately I contributed to  
creating in the first place.  Poor Bill.)  , I'll do some corrections  
on my snips and perhaps something on a grandma, oops grammar engine.

C'mon, altogether let's sing Coom Ba Ya...

Have many chuckles, till next time....
