[Corpora-List] is language identification solved

[Miles Osborne]

"Solved" is usually meant to mean that no more progress can be made, not
that we have 100% accuracy.

I would suggest that for major, well represented languages it will be hard
to make progress. So yes, telling if some news story is in English probably
is solved.

Dealing with short texts, especially using code switching and non standard
language is far more challenging.
