> I've just been able publish the semanticised version of Datuk's original
> ASCII Malayalam-Malayalam dictionary digitisation work.
> => http://olam.in/open/datuk
>
> "The Datuk Corpus" is a human readable, parse-ready, Unicode dictionary
> dataset with over 83,000 Malayalam words and over 106,000 definitions. It's
> been in development for over two years. The dataset is an evolution of
> Datuk's original work, and has undergone extensive refinement, corrections,
> and structuring, amounting to tens of thousands of changes. The Github
> repository for the project contains the full text corpus, an SQL dump, and
> a couple Python scripts for parsing and conversion.
>
> This is the same dataset that powers Olam's Malayalam-Malayalam dictionary
> that went live two days ago. Also, Datuk's original work constitutes a
> substantial portion of the Malayalam Wiktionary.
