Please add release tag

[tillea]

Hi,
the dictionary is packaged for Debian and it would help spotting new versions if you would add release tags as versions.
Kind regards
Andreas.

Hi Andreas,

I must admit that I'm not very familiar with versioning conventions. I ended up tagging the release in the same way as hunspell-en-med seems to be tagged in the repos, with the last release date as part of the version number. I hope that's fine.

Best regards,
Aristotelis

Thats perfectly fine since we will notice an increased tag version if you add a new tag which is finally what we need. Thanks for your quick response Andreas.

Hi Andreas,

thanks for letting me know. I'll make sure to keep the tags updated as I move along.

I forgot to ask: Are you guys planning on updating hunspell-en-med with my version of the dictionary? I'd be very honored, of course, but I'm also not sure what that would entail for me.

Thanks.

Someone from the Debian Med team fetched a dictionary somehow from https://e-medtools.com/openmedspel.html and I was checking for an update. I was not able to find any update from there and had the impression that your Git repository contains an update of the according data. If you confirm that this true I'll simply upgrade the current outdated package. There is nothing that you would need to do to make this happen. ;-) Kind regards Andreas.

Hi Andreas,

Someone from the Debian Med team fetched a dictionary somehow from
https://e-medtools.com/openmedspel.html

Ah, I see. Yes, the version in this repo is definitely further ahead, with 51374 extra terms.

However, in looking for an update to OpenMedSpel, I think I might have stumbled on a licensing issue that might make my dictionary unsuitable for the Debian repos:

e-medtools also seems to offer a commercial product called MedSpel. This dictionary is free for personal use, but not released under a libre license. Comparing this word list to the primary source of my dictionary, the GPL-licensed 'Raj Med-Spel-Chek', I just discovered that they differ by only 350 terms. I expected an overlap, but a diff of 350 out of 100.000 lines does seem suspicious.

I am not sure how to proceed from here. It might be a good idea for me to contact both of the authors and clarify the situation if I find the time.

In any case, I think it would be best to hold off on upgrading the package with my version until this is resolved. I'm sorry that I don't have any better news for you. It's quite annoying that I only stumbled on this now.

Best regards

Aristotelis
