TODO:

look at further combinations of Windows and Office (Børre)
- working on it
get a proper MS certificate, to remove the warning users get when installing (Børre)

POSTPONED:

find an outsourcing option (Børre, Sjur)
next week: try updating NSIS ourselves (Børre, Sjur)
- using Tino’s documentation & old docu’s from PLX
send a request to an NSIS developer e-mail list (Sjur)
try to find an NSIS script for building MSI packages (Børre)
add Windows 8 support to our installer (if possible)

PLX conversion

Remaining PLX bugs:

First PRI

Words are accepted and suggested in their compounding-form

REGRESSION - ALPH + NOUN NOT ACCEPTED

| a-muorra | 785,818 | FIXED

REGRESSION - DOESN’T RECOGNIZE SOME ACRO/PROP+NOUN, seems random

Unsolvable. If we fix these, we will get back the clitic-within-compound bug. The question is what is worse, and we have decided to accept some of the bugs above.

The middle ground we settle on is to accept hyphen-final words for word types that always require hyphens, like proper nouns, abbreviations and acronyms, but NOT for other words.

SUB accepted

| NRK-Finnmarku | 805 | FIXED

Second Last PRI

Section for Tags-not-working

| doesn’t follow cmp-tags | sámedikkepresideanta | 489 | +CmpN/None in comp-sugg | 1883-as | 508

Bugs below this line can be left out of the next release if we are short on time.

Compounds

guollibusse is accepted by the test speller (as it should according to the PLX codes), but not by the full speller.

Test speller entries:

guol-li	NAIE,NePE,UI	// guolli+N+Sg+Nom
guol-li	NABO	// guolli+N+SgNomCmp+RCmpnd
guol-le--	WIX	// guolli+N+SgNomCmp+RCmpnd-
guol-le	NABO	// guolli+N+SgNomCmp+RCmpnd

LEXICON GOAHTICMP
 +SgNomCmp@U.NeedsVowRed.ON@:X7@U.NeedsVowRed.ON@ R ;
 +SgNomCmp@U.NeedsVowRed.OFF@:@U.NeedsVowRed.OFF@ R ;

bus-se	NAIE,NePE,UI	// busse+N+Sg+Nom
bus-se	NAIE,NePAE,UI	// busse+N+SgGenCmp+RCmpnd
bus-se	NAIE,NePAE,UI	// busse+N+Sg+Gen
bus-se	NABO	// busse+N+SgNomCmp+RCmpnd
bus-se	GaBO,NePIE,NOX,UI	// busse+N+Sg+Gen

Full speller entries:

guol-li	NAIE,NePE,UI	// cf first PLX line above
guol-le	NABO	// cf "guolle" PLX line above

Why do we get the second guolli PLX line in the test speller, but not in the full speller? That’s the crucial point.

The analyser says:

guolli
guolli guolli+Ani+N+Sg+Nom

Task:

build both spellers anew, with exactly the same code base
go through each fst node by node for guoll[[ei], and check if there are additional paths in one of the fst’s
check the fst’s where guolle and guolli are extracted
