These dictionaries were initiated by the lab's founder,Maurice Gross.This modified version of theoriginal DELA dictionarywas necessary because ourPNU project'sconjuguercommand made it clear that there were errors in some verb conjugations.It was naturally called AU-DELA, a pun meaning beyond DELA ("au-delà" in French being translated as "beyond").I wrote anhistory of Unix & French dictionaries(in French only),
which covers this dictionary and many others.LICENSEThe original contents, as well as this package, are licensed under theLesser General Public License For Linguistic Resources.AUTHORSLaboratoire d'Automatique Documentaire et Linguistique(LADL) for the original contents.Hubert Tournierfor the package and some initial changes.The GitHub community for further changes.
