I know we've had this discussion before, but I don't remember the outcome. It's
really up to the Braille users since it effects them more.
Without further direction, I would put spaces on both sides of the elipsis.

I think it would look a bit strange if you were to put a space after the
ellipsis but not before it. So if you're not going to put a space in front, you
shouldn't put one after it either.

I know this topic has come up many times, but I'm confused again.
In the latest issue of the Volunteer Manual it states not to place a space
before the first dot and to remove all spaces between the three dots, but it
does not state what to do after the third dot if the ellipsis occurs in the
middle of a sentence as it often does.
Ellipses are frequently used in mid-sentence in dialog, and I want to be
sure to handle them correctly.
Thanks.
