A new version of Aspell's English dictionary is now available at
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/aspell/aspell-en-0.51-0.tar.bz2 or off of the Aspell 
home page http://aspell.net.

Changes for 0.51-0: January 3, 2003

  Updated to SCOWL 5 which:

    Added variants that were not really spelling variants (such as
    forwards)

    Removed some spelling variants and other strange words from the
    word list (for example meaneing).

    Removed rarely used inflections of a word.

    Removed the DEC Word List due to the questionable license and
    because removing it will not seriously decrease the quality of SCOWL
    (there are a few less proper names).

    Among others.
