[logon] preparing for another LOGON snapshot: Barcelona

G'day,

Great idea.   I will try to have an up-to-date  Jacy, JaEn, maybe EnJa.

I will probably also have KoJa and JaKo as well as an EnEn paraphrase
system ready by then. Are we aiming to be an inclusive release?  If so
I will bundle them up too.

Probable:
 * LexTypeDB
 * Useful unknown word handling

WishList:
 * Simple translation server interface
 * Support for Steel Bank Common Lisp :-).
