- Documentation updates (https://github.com/liblouis/liblouis/pull/27)
   are some internal and external (i.e. user visible) improvements to the
   documentation. These can probabby go in. I don't know if anyone (Bert,
   Mesar?)wants to check this first.

The only external changes were the the little text from Joseph right? Looks ok
to me.

OK, merged.

- I don't know the status of the Dutch tables
   (https://github.com/liblouis/liblouis/pull/16). Last I heard there was
   some more work pending. Bert?

Yes I will try to get this in next week.

Great, thanks.

- The development tools (https://github.com/liblouis/liblouis/pull/11)
   would be nice to have but there might be too much work to make it in.
   Bert what do you think?

Table development tools. Well like I said theoretically the tool works great but
it hasn't been tested in real life. And then you said nobody will probably look
at it as long as it's in a branch, but still I wouldn't put something as
immature as this stuff in a release. Also the branch includes a new opcode which
I think we first need to discuss. Besides it doesn't have a proper name yet
(it's called syllable* with a star).

I will make a separate thread for this, but in short: the new opcode is like
nocross but the characters should not just not cross syllable boundaries, they
should exactly match a syllable.

OK, let's move this to the March release so we can also have some documentation to go with it.

Thanks
Christian
