The license on it allows re-distribution, I think, so it would be possible to 
make a much smaller, trimmed-of-fat subset for use as a word processor 
supplemental dictionary available from a more local server. A nice 
collaborative project - happy to write  a few Python scripts to do the trimming 
if necessary if someone else works out what sort of files are needed. Target 
supplementary dictionary formats ought to be OpenOffice and MS-Word - no idea 
what form for files these can import as spelling dictionaries. Plain text 
files, I expect.
