Brazilian Portuguese Grammar Checker for OOo

aLouis Su¨¢rez-Potts interviewed Carlos Eduardo Dantas de Menezes whose group recently completed a grammar checker for OpenOffice.org. The project is called CoGrOO (Corretor Gramatical acoplavel ao OpenOffice).

I like the following part :)

Louis: How did you get involved in OpenOffice.org? And who is included in your team?

Carlos: I guess it's fair to cite all collaborators of project (I know it's boring, but I want all in the team to receive credit):
- Prof. Dr. Jorge Kinoshita, coordinator, technical manager, Grammar Checker server's programmer.
- Prof. Dr. La¨ªs Salvador, documentation manager, grammar rules writer.
- Prof. MSc. Carlos Menezes, technical analyst, GUI's programmer, installer's programmer.
- Sueli Uliano, linguist, grammar rules writer.
- William Colen Silva, Grammar Checker server's programmer.
- Marcos Oku, Grammar Checker server's programmer.
