[Corpora-List] After the Deadline Language Checking Software -- Open Sourced

[Raphael Mudge]

Colleagues,
I'm writing to announce the open source availability of the After the  
Deadline language checking software.  After the Deadline is a software  
service that checks spelling, style, and grammar. AtD uses neural  
networks to power a contextual spell checker and statistical misused  
word detector. It also does grammar and style checking with a rule- 
based engine.

The front-end JavaScript components and the back-end server software  
are both open.  Nothing this comprehensive exists under an open source  
license.

After the Deadline is sponsored by Automattic and checks spelling,  
style, and grammar for nine millions bloggers on WordPress.com.

The source code, bootstrap data, and documentation are available at:

http://open.afterthedeadline.com

After the Deadline is available under the GNU General Public License.   
To learn what it does visit:

The announcement is at:

Since this is GPL, there is a lot of freedom to do as you wish with  
this. By open sourcing this I'm excited to see what we do with it. I  
look forward to your thoughts.
