Greetings! I would like to offer a contribution to this library, if ICU is not already used, for supporting Lao word-breaking. Lao is similar to Thai, in that spaces are used more like punctuation, and not as separators between words. So, ICU (http://icu-project.org) fixes this by checking word-lists to find the break points. Lao is soon to be supported as a result of the project I am working with. I would like to contribute this code, free of charge - obviously, to this library so that the Lao language is fully supported in open source software. Maybe someone can help me in getting it integrated? The code is available at: http://code.google.com/p/lao-dictionary/ If this project needs the contribution licensed in another manner, email me, and it's done. I am willing to open source it in any license needed. Thank you all for your awesome work in such great software! If ICU is being used as a backend for doing internationalization, it may not be needed to do this. Just let me know! --
