+English (Australian) Dictionary for OpenOffice.org
+
+This dictionary was based on the Australian English Dictionary
+available from http://lingucomponent.openoffice.org/spell_dic.html
+(Licensed under the LGPL.) In turn, that dictionary was based on
+the en_GB Myspell dictionary which in turn was initially based on
+a subset of the original English wordlist created by Kevin Atkinson
+for Pspell and Aspell (also initially licensed under the LGPL.)
+
+Cameron Roy made some improvements and packaged the improved
+dictionary for the Australian Dictionary Firefox extension.
+
+David Wilson packaged Cameron Roy's Firefox dictionary into this
+OpenOffice.org extension: dict-en-au.oxt.
