The CEDICT project was started by Paul Denisowski in 1997 and is maintained by a team on mdbg.net under the name CC-CEDICT, with the aim to provide a complete Chinese to English dictionary with pronunciation in pinyin for the Chinese characters.
CEDICT is a text file; other programs (or simply Notepad or egrep or equivalent) are needed to search and display it. This project is used by several other Chinese-English projects. The Unihan Database uses CEDICT data for most of its information about character compounds, but this is auxiliary and is explicitly not a part of the main Unicode database.[1]
CEDICT project started by Paul Denisowski, on the model of EDICT. Continued by Erik Peterson.
2007
MDBG started a new project called CC-CEDICT which continues the CEDICT project with a new license: Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 License, allowing more projects to use it.[3] Additionally a work flow [1] has been set up to streamline the process of submitting, reviewing and processing new entries.

CEDICT has shown the way to some other projects:
HanDeDict (~156,000 Chinese entries)
CFDICT (~44,000 entries) for French
Some older CEDICT data is also found in the Adsotrans dictionary.
