The Italian NL community is going to ask for such an integration in version 2.1. We have a dictionary and thesaurus available, both under GPL 2. We feel that, as Pavel already pointed out, the definite way out in this case is to receive a clear answer to http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=65039 which is now in its sixth months of processing without any substantial developments. So, while still keeping some faith that issue 65039 will be closed sooner or later, we have been tracking copyright holders of our tools for 30 days and we are now close to have them all agree to make the Italian dictionary and thesaurus available for inclusion in the OpenOffice.org 2.1 build packaged and distributed by SUN under the LGPL version 2.1. Could someone please fix a deadline and a process to have our tools included by SUN in its OOo 2.1 builds under the (obviously acceptable) conditions set in the paragraph above? Please understand that, as this has been a major effort, we are not going to engage in an undertaking we cannot successfully conclude. So we (and, I believe, all NL communities) would like to receive real answers, like "If modified linguistic tools allowing for inclusion in OOo 2.1 are ready by Oct XY, then they will make it into the build" rather than answers like "I think it might be done but decision depends on someone else". Of course, we can provide any information you may need.
