Yes, but.
Why would we not make a demand to some official sites to provide a database for
emacs ?
Let me finish the cloning the next week , and a few members of emacs could
write a demand to some sites.
I clone an official site of France that I use all the time. If I clone it and
use it, why you may be not able to use it. as time as I use it, and an Internet
User use it ? After I finish cloning it, I tell you the site, when I finish.
Until then, no word from me, because for me the data base that I clone is
crucial.
In the 21th century the editors/providers of written dictionnaries are gaining
their lives from other resources, not from selled dictionnaries.Maybe they can
understand that providing their data bases is a huge grow of cultural level ,
and maybe they provide the data bases to emacs.
