Great catch. I guess that KAMI have just missed it. It is a language
independent product name and it is perfectly fine to have it in the
technical.dic.

MySQL looks fine.

"GNU" and "Linux" sounds reasonable

Oracle is fine as well.

Hmm, I am not sure if these are language independent names. Sophie, what
do you think?

KAMI, could you please take care of this discussion and add the
requested words to git?


> Are these choices deliberate?

We wanted to remove oracle.dic because it include many generic English
words, e.g. Time, Tools, Use, Value, Work.
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/extras/commit/?h=libreoffice-3-3&id=7fbdfd0a0d2af30af92839ebf8bcf97c46551
is just the first draft. Such dictionaries are always work in progress.
Feel free to suggest list of more missing words.


Best Regards,
Petr
