Nope. I don't think so...
If no one else is willing to invest that tiny 10-15 minutes to do so you
can alway write an issue to me ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) or
[EMAIL PROTECTED] (with me in cc) about this and I happily spend the
few minutes to create that oxt.

Just add the relevant information to the issue as well. E.g. Some
descriptive text to be listed on the download page and a appropriate
license file. E.g. one that states the dictionary to be published under
GPL 3.0.


The essence being:
If you can convert the dictionaries to oxt and upload them on your own
that is fine. But if you can't or don't have the time, just providing
the dictionary and writing an issue to have someone else take care of
the rest is fine as well!


Regards,
Thomas
