[Lexicog] Re: Collaborative online dictionary

[Ivaylo Ivanov]

Hi Gerard,

I set up account with OmegaWiki but I still cannot understand how it 
works. I'll try to read more info on it. In fact, I wonder wheter 
wikis are suitable platforms for handling dictionary databases.

Right now, I'm exploring the features of this product: Glossword 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/glossword/ and 
http://code.google.com/p/glossword/

It seems to me more fitting for developing a dictionary and the 
works is more straightforward.

Any other ideas of similar products?
