Friends,
Based on the code of our very successful dictionary bot, Vasudev
Kamath launched English-Kannada dictionary bot service. Unlike
Malayalam or Hindi, Kannada does not have a free s/w licensed
dictionary database. So the bot completely relies on the Kannada
wiktionary. See the blog post:
http://vasudevkamath.blogspot.com/2010/11/jabber-dictionary-bot-for-kannada.html
And English-Malayalam bot now uses Malayalam wiktionary along with our
dict database. It crossed 8000 users now. I had written a blog post
about this here:

Parsing wiktionary content is not an easy job, it still have some
bugs. Wiktionary has highly unstructured data or machine consumption.
Malayalam, Kannada and Hindi bots are running from our VPS server.
Thanks
Santhosh Thottingal.
