Thanks to Babak Mahmoudi, Edwin Hakopian, and others a new Persian (a=
lso=20
known as Farsi) dictionary is now available for Aspell 0.60:
  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/aspell/dict/fa/aspell6-fa-0.02-0.tar.bz2

The German (de) dictionary by Bj=F6rn Jacke has been updated to the l=
atest=20
source version, 20030222.  In addition an affix file is now used, but=
 affix=20
compression is not enabled by default.  You can find it at:
  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/aspell/dict/de/aspell6-de-20030222-1.tar.bz2

A New German dictionary using the original spelling rules (de-alt),=
=20
originally by Heinz Knutzen, is now available for Aspell 0.60:
  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/aspell/dict/de/aspell6-de-alt-2.1-1.tar.bz2

If there is enough interest I can combine both German dictionaries in=
to=20
one and release an Aspell 0.50 version.  Due to limitations of Aspell=
 0.50=20
it is not possible to release them as separate dictionaries.

Dictionary updates from this point on will be announced on a bi-weekl=
y=20
basis.
