I tend to agree and I thought it would be not too much effort to provide
the info we need. I simply can't say too much about the dictionaries
used for a foreign language. But using the ones for 3.3 could be an option.

Can we simply use whatever dictionary was used with OOo 3.3.0?
OpenOffice is pretty much useless without a spell checking dictionary.
It might be conceivable to release a new translation for an obscure
minority language without a spell checker, as an experimental version.
But for a major language, where we expect millions of downloads, this
would be a support nightmare. Better not to release it at all, IMHO,
than to release without a dictionary.

we have dictionaries for 4 languages now, and no info which dict to
bundle for Polish, Swedish, Korean and Norwegian Bokmal
50% of the new languages will come without a dedicated dict if we get no
information until let say Wednesday.
So again please provide us the information which dictionary should be
bundled and is already tested by some volunteers or real users of the
languages.

The Hungarian version was issued without any ditionary, now I checked
