Thread: Help with new contrib

Hi, I have worked on a project and on my free time I made a port of a
specific metaphone algorithm, adapted for Brazilian portuguese. I used
mainly the code presented in contrib/fuzzystr/dmetaphone.c to make the
postgresql interface. So, I question if here is the best place for such contribution and
which license should use, or I can just keep the previous one (Perl's
compatible).  Cheers,          Jordao

Nice. I'm looking for soundex-like algorithms in portuguese. I'm 
developing a set of similarity functions (ATM is 16 functions) for my 
thesis and I'm planning to release it at pgfoundry soon. If you're 
interested I can add it too.

I'm thinking to release it under BSD.
