Hi,

the current situation for dictionary download is very unsatisfying. Menu 'Tools-> Language -> More dictionaries) leads to <http://libreplanet.org/wiki/Group:OpenOfficeExtensions/< with dubious links and most contents no dictionaries. To find <http://dvd.de.libreofficebox.org/extensions/> is really potluck, some others can be found on
<http://extensions-test.libreoffice.org/extension-center?getCategories=Dictionary&getCompatibility=any&sort_on=positive_ratings&path=%2FLibreOffice-Extensions-and-Templates%2Fextension-center&portal_type=PSCProject&SearchableText=>
and who knows where else dictionaries might be.

What a mess.

We need a similar solution as discussed in thread "Bugzilla Bug Report Assistant" (I started 2011-09-15).

The link from LibO menu should reach a "language tools" page with an enduring URL existing for a long time.

This page should lead to repositories where dictionaries and other language tools can be found. Contents (IMHO, first idea):

1. "Official" ones what are also delivered with current LibO versions (for updates in old LibO versions.
2. From our own repository
3. A Wiki page with links to other sources and experiential reports

What do you think?

Rainer
