Dutch open source language project gets official certification

,----[ Quote ]
| According to Brouwer, more than 10 Dutch and Belgian volunteers, including 
| linguists, harvested words from various sources to create the list. "These 
| are people who like to be engaged in language and are supporters of the open 
| source software model." In January, the project published a beta version of 
| its language files, which got a lot of attention in the Dutch language area. 
| The current word list includes more than 140,000 entries.
