    28 Project goals.
       
    29 ==============
       
    30 
       
    31  * Create and maintain good quality EN-RU dictionaries.
       
    32  * Host some free dictionaries (to make them available to broad auditory).
       
    33  * Provide all data in most liberal restrictions (public domain).
       
    34  * Supply additional information about English language and tools for creating
       
    35    and maintaining dictionaries.
       
    36 
       
    37 Target audience.
       
    38 ================
       
    39 
       
    40  * Regular users for using dictionaries and reading articles.
       
    41  * Dictionary develpers for checking dictionary building and maintaining
       
    42    techniques.
       
    43 
       
    44 Project quality.
       
    45 ================
       
    46 
       
    47 Currently dictionaries have very small size and less useful. You can see
       
    48 `statistics <STAT.html>`_ on articles count.
       
    49 
       
    50 I check spelling and translation of most words with old learning books and
       
    51 sometimes with free dictionaries.
       
    52 
       
    53 But *gadict-irregular-verbs-en-ru* dictionary contain mostly all irregular
       
    54 verbs.
       
    55 
       
    56 Project history.
       
    57 ================
       
    58 
       
    59 Project born in 2009-06-28 as collection of irregular verbs which I learn.
       
    60 
       
    61 It use inconvenient for editing Stardict TAB format. Later project switched to
       
    62 much verbose C5 dictfmt format.
