[Aspell-user] French rectified orthography of 1990

Hi,

I'd like to know if there are any plans to include the recommended
French orthography of 1990.
There are a few rules that rectify spelling of many words. It has been
accepted for a while by the Académie française, the French, Belgian,
Swiss and Canadian goverments.

The only issue with this orthography is that it is a recommendation,
and therefore both pre-1990 and 1990 orthographies should be avaible
and considered as correct.
Eventually the 1990 orthography should take over, so it should be set
as the default, leaving the option to the user to select both
orthographies, or just the old one as other choices.

See http://www.orthographe-recommandee.info/ in French
or 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reforms_of_French_orthography#The_1990_orthographic_rectifications
for info in English.
It can be noted that the new Word French spellchecker allow for both
orthographies with the new one as default.

Cheers,
Denis Moyogo Jacquerye
