Ideas for 2023

Ideas for improvements to CDSL dictionary digitizations

My thoughts:

• MWS markup
  • @Andhrabharati and @drdhaval2785 leading this effor.
  • Refer https://github.com/sanskrit-lexicon/mw-dev/issues/2 and related.
  • @funderburkjim may be involved in designing/implementing markup extensions/revisions
• Finish LRV dictionary (Refer https://github.com/sanskrit-lexicon/LRV)
  • integration into home page (https://github.com/sanskrit-lexicon/csl-homepage repository)
  • and into documentation (https://github.com/sanskrit-lexicon/csl-doc repository).
  • Will @drdhaval2785 do this?
• PWG/PW(K) literary source markup refinement.
  • @funderburkjim to focus on this
• Abbreviation markup for other dictionaries.
  • A useful, non-controversial enhancement.
  • When @AnnaRybakovaT gets up to speed with regex work in Python, she can lead this. @funderburkjim can help,
• Amarakosha new dictionary
  • Maybe similar to ARMH
  • Documentation should contain a tutorial on how to use such a dictionary
  • @drdhaval2785 would know how to lead this
  • @funderburkjim might be involved in developing new 'metaline' enhancements for synonyms

Have not mentioned what @gasyoun might take the lead on in CDSL improvement?

What are your thoughts?

@drdhaval2785 interested enough in LRV? @funderburkjim let us have the call on 26th of Feb.? I'm interested in what you've done with Samasas and Hitopadesha Syntax.

[drdhaval2785]

I am OK with pursuing LRV.

[funderburkjim]

@gasyoun I will look on skype at about Noon (Eastern Standard Time) on Sunday 26th of February.

[Andhrabharati]

If the session is recorded and posted somewhere, I would be able to watch it leisurely sometime later-- to see if any (interesting and useful) points relevant to me are present. [I had already indicated earlier to @gasyoun, that I won't be participating in these meets.]

[funderburkjim]

@gasyoun Looking for you on skype

[gasyoun]

@drdhaval2785 we had a 2.5 hours preliminary discussion with @funderburkjim, @AnnaRybakovaT and @Andhrabharati yesterday. When are you ready to meet on 12 of March? NY noon Sunday is late for Moscow and far too late for Delhi. We can try Saturday late 1 am NY Sunday morning, which will be like 10 am Moscow morning and around 13 in Delhi @Andhrabharati ?

Sources for this table: MSK and IST

EST (New York)	MSK (Moscow)	IST (Delhi)
11PM	7AM	9:30AM
12AM	8AM	10:30AM
1AM	9AM *	11:30AM

• Note difference from Marcis comment above.

1AM Sunday EST NY is ok with me.
Even better would be 11PM EST (Saturday) or 12AM (Sunday).

[funderburkjim]

Note: Mar 12 in US is beginning of 'daylight savings time', At 2AM March 12, the clocks are reset to 3AM ! Should not affect table above.

[gasyoun]

I'm for 11PM EST. @drdhaval2785 is 9:30AM ok for you?

[drdhaval2785]

9:30 am IST is fine for me.

[gasyoun]

@Andhrabharati can you go for 9:30 am IST?

[Andhrabharati]

In general, any time is alright for me; but as of now (in my present "position"), I am not sure if I could commit for anything.

[funderburkjim]

Hitopadesha Syntax.

@gasyoun hitopadesha_iast_p.txt renders the Sanskrit text in iast.

[gasyoun]

@funderburkjim guess in 2024 not still far away?
