Hello my dear ones,
I have released an update for my forked en_GB speller.
Can Andrea pack an extension with it for AOO and LO?

You are correct. The dictionary was taken from the OpenOffice 3.3
sources and had to be moved to an extension for licensing reasons, so I
created the extension. But I don't actively maintain it: I may integrate
updates from others from time to time, but I have no connection to the
"upstream" people (the maintainers of those dictionaries). The only fix
I applied was to correct a long-standing bug in the hyphenation.

This is good if you have a common basis. But now the dictionaries that
are aggregated into
http://extensions.openoffice.org/en/project/aoo-dict-en
come from different sources, and it would be quite hard to rework it.
That said, if someone wants to try we can surely benefit from it.

Hunspell is the engine, and we continue to use as a spell-check engine
with no problems. If there is any "official" English dictionary shipped
with Hunspell, we can surely have a look and reuse it. Currently, for
continuity, we simply use the OpenOffice 3.3.0 dictionary with the
hyphenation fix and with (as discussed in this thread) Marco's
improvements for the OpenOffice 4.1 release. But if you have pointers to
updated upstreams we can update everything.
Regards,
Andrea.

Hi Andrea,
I was talking about this with Marco the other day, it is indeed confusing
understanding how this dictionary is being built. First of all it seems
this dictionary havent been update in a long time. There seems to be
originated from a project called WordLabel, however the site in itself
seems to be focused on other projects beside the dictionary atm.
Furthermore, it seems to be not public (I wasn't able to find an SCM, or
Issue tracker).
The best example, is the project that Santiago bosio and other community
members do for Spanish which is to not bundle the regionalizations but to
develop an engine that automate the generation for each one, and then for
each project (OpenOffice, LO, Mozilla, Aspell/Hunspell, etc).
https://forja.rediris.es/projects/rla-es/
However I don't see an open project or a source tree for Marco to sign in
to and perform the commits. I am sure that this will be needed eventually
since the original developers of the Hunspell project (in what
OpenOffice.org took off) seemed to have move on.

Hello Marco, thank you for preparing this dictionary (and I know another
version is coming). I cannot package it as a separate extension (either
for OpenOffice or LibreOffice) since I wouldn't then be able to maintain it.
What I can surely do, and probably the most useful for users, is that I
copy your files into
http://extensions.openoffice.org/en/project/aoo-dict-en (the extension
that contains all English -US and GB and other variants- dictionaries
and that we ship with Apache OpenOffice).
Since this extension is bundled with almost any version of OpenOffice we
distribute, I update it quite rarely, usually matching an OpenOffice
release, so that people will already have a new version when they
download the latest OpenOffice release.
This means that I will probably copy your work into
http://extensions.openoffice.org/en/project/aoo-dict-en when the next
OpenOffice release approaches. I will send a dictionary update warning
to this list anyway.
Regards,
Andrea.
