tl;dr: Is an update to the myspell-en Oxford spelling dictionary really |
| 2 |
wanted by anyone? |

If you don't know or don't care, you can safely ignore all the rest. |

| 6 |
app-dicts/myspell-en-20081002 works, but newer, better |
| 7 |
dictionaries are available. It's maintainer-wanted, so I'm taking |
| 8 |
a crack at an update. |

|
| 10 |
My constraints are that I must leverage myspell-r2 and must use |
| 11 |
dictionaries that have been rolled up into LO/AOO extensions (OXTs). |
| 12 |
That path is extremely clear and easy, whereas all other paths are |
| 13 |
polished cliffs to this newbie. |

| 15 |
The issue is that I can only find one one OXT which provides Oxford |
| 16 |
spelling.⃰ I can install it, but it makes hunspell throw errors which |
| 17 |
make me think there's something inherently wrong with the files. |
| 18 |

| 19 |
So, is an update to the Oxford spelling dictionary really wanted by |
| 20 |
anyone? |

If so, I will try to get a dev to help me accommodate you. If not, you |
| 23 |
can just keep using the 2008 dictionary and I can rest. |
