Dictionary sources

Hi Jose! Just wondering about the use of the Collins Dictionary, the Oxford Dictionary, the Cambridge Dictionary and the MacMillan Dictionary as pronunciation sources for Britfone. Are these sources compatible with the MIT license you are releasing Britfone under? Thanks - Simon.

Hi Simon,

I believe the use of the various on-line dictionaries should be compatible with the MIT license since they were consulted rather than included. The only sources included (and even then after heavy modification) were the ones that are computer-readable (like CMUDICT and BNC). I'll make sure I clarify this in the next version.
