OpenSpell

"Researchers at the Meraka Institute have released a spelling game in all 11 official South African languages. The game, OpenSpell, can also be localised for additional languages."

This is interesting news; the software is GPL, the game can be localised and it is the kind of software that would be usefull in addition to the vocabulary trainer at OmegaWiki. It would be an ideal tool to localise it in as many languages as possible.

I learned about it from Friedel from translate.org.za; he is another who would love to see a tool like this available in as many languages as possible...

I will send them an e-mail; it will be interesting to learn what the possibilities are :)
Thanks,
