Words are taken from http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/ Wiktionary:Frequency_lists/TV/2006/explanation - the first 10,000 words. The latest release includes documentation of how to combine Crypt::XkcdPassword with Text::Aspell to filter out such words. https:// metacpan.org/module/TOBYINK/Crypt-XkcdPassword-0.003/lib/Crypt/ XkcdPassword/Examples.pod I'm leaving this issue open for now, as a better solution is to distribute a better English dictionary. Roget's thesaurus is on Project Gutenberg, which might be a good source.

There's now a Roget-based word list in the repo. Many of the words in it though are rather obscure. Quite a lot of them appear to be loan-words from other languages that I wasn't aware we'd even borrowed (e.g.abundanti). Next step I suppose is to calculate the intersection of the two lists.
