Only Aspell is used on Windows.
What about some of the components themselves? I have some (vague) memory
of this being discussed. (The original location of the components should
probably the primary place to look for them, but we could supply a backup
location for the installer. Not necessarily for all components, but for
some of them).
If it's more then aspell dictionaries, how about a directory tree that
looks something like this:
* contrib/
** windows/
*** aspell/
**** 6.0/ (dictionaries for aspell6.0)
*** ? what else might there be?
The version number of the dictionary format (6) is already in the name. If
there would ever be a new Aspell version with a different dictionary format
(which is very unlikely), the dictionaries will be uploaded to
ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/contrib/aspell7-windows/
The purpose with a tree was to make it easy to synchronize the entire tree
between different locations. So I'd still suggest something like:
* contrib/
** windows/ <- the directory that will be synchronized
*** aspell6
A better name than 'windows' could be used of course. Perhaps something
like 'windows-installer-support'. It doesn't really have to be a short
URI.
