New pure-Perl implementation of Spanish stemmer

Dear All,

I have just uploaded to CPAN a Perl implementation of the Spanish stemming algorithm. It is called Lingua::Stem::Es and it is very close to the French implementation, Lingua::Stem::Fr.

As tests, I have included in the distribution the files voc.txt and output.txt; I mention these two files are bound to the BSD License in the documentation of the module. I hope it is fine. The module itself was released under the Artistic Licence.

Let me know if you disagree with the licensing terms; if you have comments about the module itself, I would love to hear them.

Best regards,

Julio Fraire

Julio,

I've just downloaded the CPAN module and browsed through the Perl code.
It all looks very nice. 

The licensing arrangements seem fine (at Snowball, we're fairly relaxed
about such things anyway!)

Re: New pure-Perl implementation of Spanish stemmer

Martin,

Thank you for your kind words.

The CPAN testers have found two problems: First, I forgot to declare one dependency which is used during testing and second, there seem to be a problem with words ending in "ción"; these are not being stemmed correctly. I guess it's an encoding problem, since in my own tests I can't replicate this. So, I will soon upload a corrected revision.

Best regards,

Julio Fraire
