+This is a new Russian (KOI8-R) dictionaries for ispell.
+
+The word list is based on the early one collected by Neal Dalton.
+After removing illegal words and adding many new rules and words,
+the dictionaries contain now over 116,200 basic words and produce
+over 1,116,000 related words (compared to 52,000 words in Neal's
+version and 952,000 words in the dictionary by K. Knizhnik).
+
+Also, this package seems to be the only one that supports the right
+spelling of words with the Russian letter 'yo' (other dictionaries
+simply replace the letter 'yo' by 'ye').
