It seems, within a few days I will finish the morphological extension of the en_US dictionary (converting the morphological data of Wordlist project). > I'm still waiting for a plan how to upload all pre-bundled dictionaries > to our repository. But that's the second step. I think, it's possible to upload all official (accepted and preferred by NLP projects) extensions from http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/automatically with the required database and updating mechanism/script in the repository. Unfortunately, English (variants) have no NLP projects yet (this was a topic of the last OOo conference). For American English, I will make an official en_US extension maintained by Wordlist project (members).
