Dictionary - en_GB - release it?
Hello!
One week has gone by and only one person replied to the testing e-mail,
with a "+1".
Does this mean I can press the "Publish" button?
Also, every month I update the dictionary with around 200-300 new unique
words (we are only in half of January and the planned February release
already has near 300 new unique words, which means that this month I
worked harder).
Should I update Apache's dictionary every month or only at a certain
pace? I update Mozilla's version every month.
Thanks!
Kind regards,
>Marco A.G.Pinto

I think is safe to publish it.

I've test it and seems that is working correctly. Would have been
better to provide at testcase since most of the enhancements can be
tested. But I don't really see a reason to hold this back.

Hello Rob,
I am maintaining the "English Dictionaries" which includes all of them,
but I am only improving the en_GB so far.
I was able to improve the en_GB because I grabbed it from Mozilla, and
British English is my second tongue.
I believe all the others that come in the AOO are obfuscated
Maybe someone could do the same for en_US? Grab from Mozilla? Can't the
original en_US creator provide a clean text one?
That way someone could improve it as well using my tool "Proofing Tool
GUI" and then I could add it to the OXT.
PS->I searched for "naïve" and it is in the en_GB dictionary. So, no
problem for British English.
Kind regards,

Hi Marco,
Are you maintaining the en-US dictionary as well?
I just received a bug report on Twitter. I verified it with the en-US
dictionary. It might happen with other English dictionaries as well.
We have autocorrect configured so it automatically replaces "naive" with
"naïve". But "naïve" is not in the spell checking dictionary. So the
autocorrect leads to a word that is marked as a spelling error!
