Hello Sascha / @brawer, My Python skills are near zero so far, I do my best to help with my available knowledges and know-how :
The project also lacks meaningul documentation (#80). It would be inefficient to get a total Python-newbie on Python copy-engineering. I will be more productive on other linguistic diversity issues, here on on @Lingua-libre projects.
Given how central to web linguistic diversity is this CLDR/UNILEX/Unicode/Google's CorpusCrawler repository, is there an email contact to which I or/and Wikimedia France or/and Wikimedia Foundation could write to ask for more solid support for CorpusCrawler ? Volunteership can do a lot but is too irregular. A dedicated, versatile, paid maintainer supervising ~20² Google's open sources projects, unblocking most key bottlenecks via 4 hours coding sprints and community support would quickly provide a positive ROI. 2020 opens access to skilled workers all around the world. There is surely a long list of open sources projects which would gain of such tiny yet skilled bottlenecks-kicks to move forward.
I would be interested to coordinate such email with Wikimedia France and the US Wikimedia Foundation to get a hand of names of that email. (If there is a reasonable >5~10% chances to achieved the intended goal of a skilled, paid maintainer here 4hrs/week in next 2 years).
1: see text above 2: depending on projects activity, could be less or more. Current project has about 1 issue / month.
Thanks for the chat @Brawer. Our online chat will help me conceive better the next phases of Lingualibre and collaboration with crawler.
