Hello This is a continuation of the "bundling of dictionaries in upcoming OpenOffice.org versions<http://lingucomponent.openoffice.org/servlets/BrowseList?list=dev&by=thread&from=2130505>" thread but you probably don't need to revisit that because there is no specific references.
My goal is to have the English(Australia) dictionary included in the next OOo release. I am just trying to gather information on what is required to make that possible. I am working with the author (dnwilson) of the Australian English dictionary extension, so we pretty much have all the data and files ready (it is currently available as an extension). Should I get SSH access to the SVN? From reading this mailing list I read that we need an Issue to get a public key. We have that here: http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=94562. I noticed from looking in \\SVN\trunk\dictionaries\ that each language, and locale, has it's own subfolder. However on my OOv3.0.0 installation, the standard dictionaries (EN, FR, ES) that were installed with Open Office are added as extensions (and the actual extension files are also included). The standard English dictionary extension includes US, UK and ZA (South Africa) locales. I believe the English(Australia) dictionary should be in this package. Do we just need to make a subfolder and add the relevant files? If so, please advise me on access etc. Thank you Robert Black
