Hi Kevin,

For OOo3.0 we want to get rid of DictOOo. We are currently enabling the
linguistic tools in OOo to be able to work with dictionaries installed
as extensions or anywhere(!) in the system. This works in the same way
as in case of templates: have a mergeable list of folders where OOo will

Hi,
My 2 cents ...
I thought about interfacing to system-level spellcheckers and even
once wrote a daemon version of myspell to handle spellcheck requests
(ala Mac OSX spellcheck). The idea is a sound one since it will
allow the spellcheck daemon if it is smart to mmap the dictionary
