LanguageTool - place link on AOO site

Hello!

Just wondering if you place a link to the grammar checker, LanguageTool, 
somewhere in the area of the AOO downloads:
https://languagetool.org

I am involved on the Portuguese rules for it.

LanguageTool is an important add-on for AOO since it supports over 20 
languages and it suggests grammar corrections, which is something 
missing in AOO but which MS Office has by default.

Thanks!

Kind regards,
      >Marco A.G.Pinto

We already link to the Extensions site from
http://www.openoffice.org/download/
with the appropriate wording ("Extend your Apache OpenOffice 
functionality with a large and growing library of extensions and 
dictionaries from other users") and when clicking on it one immediately 
sees the most popular extensions.

Maybe the download page of the English dictionary (the one managed by 
Marco on the Extensions site) can be modified to recommend LanguageTool 
as a further add-on?

Regards,
   Andrea.

I would be a bit careful with that, if done (and I am not against it being
done) it must be 100%
clear that this is not coming from apache, and not part of our release
schedule.

In the french area, we have a link on the main page for:
"the best extensions to enhance AOO"
This link jumps to the community forum and a dedicated section:

There is  already a link from the Extensions repository, at
http://extensions.openoffice.org/en/project/languagetool

Perhaps this should be linked also to the sadebar on  the download page?
