Description
I've got some English-language methods in Lafcadio, and I'm looking to shed them into some more utility-like library. Gavin Sinclair pointed me to your Linguistics library. Here's the RDoc for the methods I want to pull out of Lafcadio:
http://lafcadio.rubyforge.org/doc/classes/Lafcadio/English.html
( I just changed all the method names to be underscore; the RDoc doesn't reflect that yet. )
Do you see a match here? Linguistics seems a lot more low-level than my English module, but I don't know that much about your plans.

Here are the files.
Currently Lafcadio is LGPL. What's the main diff between that and the Ruby license? I have to confess I'm not up on the minutiae of free software licenses.

I've been extremely remiss in incorporating the changes Francis sent to me, so I added this ticket to track my progress on this. I did have most of it integrated at one point, but apparently didn't actually commit it, as it doesn't appear to be in my working copy now.
I'll get this done ASAP.
