Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
bredzenie.sty — a Polish version of “lorem ipsum…”
When developing LaTeX classes one needs some sample text to demonstrate
the layout. A drawback of the classic “lorem ipsum” is that it
is Latin, so it doesn’t emulate the ”look and feel” of other languages.
For the development of Polish document classes I have created
the package bredzenie, which provides several paragraphs of pseudo-Polish
generated with Hidden Markov Models and Recurrent Neural
Networks trained on a corpus of Polish.
