Currently a glaring hole in OOo for the half of the English speaking population
that uses British English is that there is no thesaurus. None at all. Not even a
straight US English port. That is unless you're smart enough to hack it and copy
the thesaurus files, or download something from
http://www.8daysaweek.co.uk/downloads.htm#ukthesaurus.
This is pretty poor and is the main thing that prevents me and others from using
OOo. I use the thesaurus all the time, but I also need British English spelling.
It is a glaring hole that needs to be fixed for OOo to be adopted in India,
Britain and Australia. There are thesauruses for almost all languages except
British English, which is really very odd.
