Using a different e-mail address I help out with support in [EMAIL PROTECTED]; we've had several questions recently about spell checking in v3 Beta. So ...

Please let me know where can I find documentation on:
- how to install spell checking dictionaries/thesauri for different languages (particularly on Windows if that makes a difference but also on other OS's)?

They are provided as an extension (.oxt file) so to install them go under the extension manager.

- where I can find spell checking dictionaries/thesauri for different languages? Will it be necessary for authors of such dictionaries/thesauri to submit them to a central "repository" of some sort? Where is that repository?

- how to convert an existing (2.x) dictionary/thesaurus to the new format? Is there a program that automates this process? For Windows (or, if not for Windows then for what)?

http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Non-code_extensions#Extensions_for_dictionaries
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Extension_Dictionaries

Also, what progress is being made converting the many 2.x format dictionaries/thesauri to the new format? Is there a project for this? How do I get in touch with the people participating in that project?

I don't know, may be someone else on this list will have the answer :)

Hope this helps
Kind regards
Sophie
