7.1 Preamble
</SectionTitle>
      <Paragraph position="0"> This paper focuses on one particular functionality of the Papillon platform: the generic editor. Its purpose is not to present the building of Papillon dictionary or the progress of Papillon Project as a whole. The evaluation will then focus on the editor.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph position="1">  The contribution phase on Papillon project has not begun yet. Thus, for the moment, very few users tested the editor. We have not yet enough data to evaluate seriously the usability of the interface. Then, the evaluation will be driven on the technical aspects of the editor. In order to evaluate the genericity and the usability of the editor, we generated interfaces for two other dictionary structures: the GDEF Estonian-French dictionary and the WaDokuJiTen Japanese-German dictionary.</Paragraph>

7.2 Edition of the GDEF dictionary
</SectionTitle>
      <Paragraph position="0"> The GDEF project (Big Estonian-French Dictionary) is managed by Antoine Chalvin from INALCO, Paris. The dictionary microstructure is radically different from the Papillon dictionary as you will see in Figure 9 compared to figure 8. You may notice the 6 levels of recursion embedded in the entry structure.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph position="1"> It took about one week to write the interface description files for the new dictionary structure in order to generate properly a complete interface for the GDEF dictionary.</Paragraph>

7.3 Edition of the WaDokuJiTen
</SectionTitle>
      <Paragraph position="0"> The WaDokuJiTen project is managed by Ulrich Apel, now invited researcher at NII, Tokyo. The dictionary is originally stored in a FileMaker database. It has more than 200,000 entries. It took four days to export integrate the dictionary in Papillon platform and to write the  the Editor files needed for the generation of the editor interface. The integration was done in 4 steps: export the dictionary from FileMaker into an XML file, tag the implicit structure with a perl script, write the metadata files and upload the dictionary on the Papillon server.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph position="1"> The dictionary microstructure is simpler than the previousone(seefigure 10). Ittookonlytwo days to write the files needed for the generation of the editor interface.</Paragraph>
