I have  suggestion to alleviate the multilingual issues.

How about including WordTarns
<http://wordtrans.sf.net>

"Wordtrans is a front-end for several dictionaries made with the Qt
toolkit. 
[...]

Wordtrans has some front-ends:

    * wordtrans
      This is the console version. Lets you search and add new terms to
any available dictionary.
    * qwordtrans
      Version for X-Window made with the Qt toolkit.
    * kwordtrans
      Version for KDE 2.
    * wordtrans-web
      There is a web interface which allows you to query any dictionary
using your web browser. You just need to install the package
wordtrans-web (requires php).

Wordtrans is under the GPL license."

In the absence of (up to date) QT version of it the web version would do
fine --even better.

One could even build a multilingual website this way :-). The de<-->en
department seems very strong to me.

It is OK to include PHP in 'libre' CDs... is it not?
