Well, I thought the changelog showed a plan of action to pull 
functionality out of separate programs and install it as library calls.

-changelog----------------------
Changes from 0.60.1 to 0.60.2 (December 18, 2004)

Added the munch-list command to the aspell utility. The munch program in 
the myspell/ directory will disappear in Aspell 0.61. The munchlist 
script will also likely disappear or be replaced when Aspell 0.61 is 
released since it doesn't work correctly anyway. 
-----------------------

...and aspell.h also contains a few additions too, because a patch I 
sent for mk-src.in applied to MAIN didn't appear in 0.60.3.aspell.h
(....yes, it appears the 0.60.x branch needs a backport of MAIN).

...we won't count this since it's sent after I assumed the above ;-)

-----------------------
I have been trying to get someone to write a Aspell plugin for 
OpenOffice for a while now.

Build a single myspell interface layer to libaspell so all myspell
programs can communicate directly with libaspell
-----------------------

Plans of action aren't cast in stone (example: must be done by 0.61), 
but to me, they did appear as an impression of direction.      :-/
