That's right, I provided the word list as well as information on
synonyms/antonyms, related words, and other lexicographic data. I started
with the lexicon I had developed for pojwI', updated it to include new
words that came out since I stopped maintaining pojwI', and sent the result
to them. They then took my materials and adjusted it to work in their
application. I provided some feedback and answered some questions, but
most of my contribution was in the materials. I'm not sure what additional
data or sources they may have consulted.
They were super nice, and it was fun working with people who share my
enthusiasm for lexicography. :)
