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.
