I also suggest that you contact the following groups/projects:
navigator / all seamen
french fries / all francho-phones
paddy wagons / Irish
email / all females in the world
master-slave architectures / ancient slave traders
Please grab a hold of yourself and give yourself a good shake. The "hun" in
hunspell has absolutely no relevance to anything German - and if it did do
you not think that the fact that Openoffice.org (which is very generously
sponsored by Sun of several teams of engineers mostly based in GERMANY) would
have accepted it ?
Now please, move on. And think of something useful to spend your time at.
