Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Extension website - broader publicity wanted

Well since OOo's Extension site is offline, last time I checked, someone 
could take them from the LibreOffice-NA.US domain and upload them to 
LO's Extension site.

Still, there should be a category called Dictionaries.  That would make 
it easier for people to find them.  "Language Tools or Aids" type of 
category might not work for some, plus not all of the currently uploaded 
dictionaries are found with that category.

The "Here are the Dictionaries" type of category, like OOo has in their 
opening extension page, would make it much easier for people to find 
them.  There are over 180 of them, so they should have their own 
category.  Language Tool, Writer's Tools Writer Extras, Linguist, 
Pagination, and the other non-dictionary tools for helping you with 
writing your documents should be in a category apart from 
"dictionaries", since there are so many dictionaries and so few of the 
writing aids that are not dictionaries.  There may be 10 or a few more 
of these writing tools vs 180+ dictionaries.  The 10 would get lost 
withing the 180.

I thought the idea had been killed off tbh until suddenly the announcement was being drawn-up.  The project seems well planned and well implemented imo.
