[Aspell-user] LGPL dictionaries in a proprietary application.

[Sebastiaan Visser]

Hello,

I am working as a developer for a company that is creating a  
(proprietary) web based XML editor and I have been busy implementing  
a custom spell checker for this application. The only thing we need  
to get it working is a bunch of dictionary files.

Because I am unable to figure out how to interpret the GNU Lesser  
General Public Licence for something other than source-code I decided  
to ask it directly at the aspell mailing list.

Can we use the uncompressed aspell LGPL'ed dictionary files (the  
plain text wordlists) to compile them to our own format (with our own  
processor) and ship these compiled files with our proprietary  
application?

Thanks in advance,
Sebastiaan Visser.
