Hi Graham,

2. Contact the Wordnet people and ask them if there's a way to contribute
Commonwealth words in a way they are marked in the data, i.e. they can be
filtered out for those who don't want them.
2 is clearly the better solution. Thanks for your offer to host the
thesaurus, but the technical hosting is actually the easy part. What is
needed for a good long-term solution is someone who's willing to work on
solution 2 above.
Sorry but solution 2 is not a solution at all. Princeton is dealing with
th_en_US and I presume th_en_GB not en_NZ or for that matter AU and ZA and so
on
If you want to build an English thesaurus that is better than Wordnet,
then, well, good luck, but remember - you have been warned.
I'd recommend searching for local English Wordnets (or similar
linguistic projects), maybe there are Australian versions. Trying to
build a new thesaurus from scratch is simply futile. See:

Marcin
