Re: [libreoffice-users] help for add LO and other open source word to add to the dictionaries

Well, if we do not add the abbreviations, then it will not show as a 
valid one.  There are abbreviations in many spell checking 
dictionaries.  I think it would be good to have the most popular tech 
ones we use in our lexicon within the open-source community.  Also, we 
use LO as the "proper" abbreviation for LibreOffice.  Same as FOSS and 
other abbreviations we use in our lexicon.

Do you really want FOSS, and other abbreviation like that missing, for a 
spell checking dictionary that is part of that community?
