Yes, but what are "the right languages"?

An advantage over installation on installation is that you can always add thesauri later, as you need them. I even think we could extend this to other external resources (such as spelling dictionaries or even layouts and modules). This would make a nice GSOC project. (Although there are of course all sorts of security issues we would need to deal with, i.e. add a way to "sign" packages). Jürgen > > JMarc > >
