Issue with Collins Latin Dictionary and Grammar
Looks like sections A-K of the Latin-English section are messed up:
It looks okay starting with L:
The extent of the issue is apparent when looking at the index:

My guess is that a single tag is wrong or missing somewhere after A,a because the font is different through the A-K.

Yes, this is significantly bad. The words in those sections are not in the headword index, so they can't be looked up using the normal process.

Very strange indeed. This hasn't been touched since 2008. It may be a decompile/reoconversion to .logos4 file format problem.
At any rate, I'll look into.

Right now we're projecting the update to be finished in early November. Unless it finishes early, it is looking like it will be pushed out on November 14.

Has this been delayed?

It was delayed. I'm sorry for the lack of update. Right now we're aiming for the work to be completed by the end of November with the update being pushed out in December.

Oh well... it will be too late to be helpful for my Latin class. It's a good thing I have Lewis and Short.

Did this miss the December push? I don't see it in my updates from today.

Unfortunately not. The resources ahead of it in the resource update line are taking longer than expected and it's been pushed back again.

So...maybe February?...

This particular resource issue renders the dictionary almost totally useless, as it can no longer be used to look up words!! I hope it can be fixed soon.

Kyle, can we get this resource bumped in the queue? It's been messed up quite a while now.

It's actually in production right now. We're targeting it being finished by the end of February. Right now I'm aiming for an update on March 6.

It has been seven months since this was reported. Any updates?

There were a few things ahead of it in line that took longer than expected. In addition this is taking longer than expected. Currently we're targeting mid-May. I apologize for the delay.

Has it slipped again? This poor resource is the Rodney Dangerfield of resources.

Unfortunately yes. It's part of a cohort of titles that are now targeted for end-of-May, early June.
I apologize for the delay.

I got word this morning that it's looking like this will be pushed out on June 26th.

Countdown to (1) a corrected resource, or (2) the monthly slippage report (maybe joining another cohort).
Well, it is sort of curious.

As far as I know we'll be able to push this out this week. Typically we push out updates every other Monday. However, the updates are contingent on getting the desktop update pushed out first but there have been delays on that front. As soon as the desktop updates get pushed this batch of resource updates will be pushed out as well.
Now I can't prove it but I'm inclined to believe that the desktop delay is somehow caused by Collins Latin Dictionary. [:P]

Really? [:D]
(Google translate has a little problem with auto-detecting the language. It thought it was Latvian because of the diacritics. If I remove the diacritics, it properly detects Latin.)
