That work consisted in using aap which automatically downloads the
dictionaries from the openoffice site and builds the corresponding spell
files.

I've just committed a skeleton of the package (debian/rules still doing
nothing) and I'm now start wondering: can a package built in this way
reside in the main section of the Debian archive? I doubt, since sources
are not available in the debian archive. I fear that if we want to be
free we should build depend on all the myspell-XX packages and patch aap
recipes to use them. Tomorrow I will check with the ftp masters.

In the mean time I'm still building spell files, that's why I haven't
yet committed anything of theme. The most though so fare is hungarian
(still running).

Cheers.
