Hi,

I was under the impression that we were "nationality neutral", by which
I mean that we did not use national flags to represent languages.
However, if I look at the massive list of dictionaries now included as
extensions in a default Mac beta4 installation - note that I get no
choice as to whether I want them or not - I see that at least 4
dictionaries have a nation's flag as their icon. This seems to be a case
of double standards. I hope then, if we are to maintain our neutrality,
that these flag icons will be removed before LibO 3.4 goes final ?
