Jan Høydahl commented on LUCENE-3414:
-------------------------------------

+1

We now use Lucene Hunspell for a few customer deployments, and it would be 
great to have it the analysis module, since it supports some 70-80 languages 
out of the box, and gives great flexibility since you can edit - or augment - 
the dictionaries to change behaviour and fix stemming bugs.

As a side benefit I also expect that when the Ooo dictionaries get more use in 
Lucene, users will over time be able to extend and improve the dictionaries, 
and contribute their changes back, benefiting also Ooo users.

> Some time ago I along with Robert and Uwe, wrote an Stemmer which uses the 
> Hunspell algorithm.  It has the benefit of supporting dictionaries for a wide 
> array of languages.   
> It seems to still be being used but has fallen out of date.  I think it would 
> benefit from being inside the analysis module where additional features such 
> as decompounding support, could be added.
