Post alternative public domain french-french dictionary

Sorry if this has been already posted .
You can find on GitHub, the Wiktionnaire here :

https://github.com/BoboTiG/ebook-rea...eleases/tag/fr

It is updated everyday at midnight and contains 327 251 entries so far
( vs 80 000 for Littré 1876 , 35 000 for Academie Francaise 1935
and 35 000 for the default Robert micro 2013 ).
Despite having more entries, I think all 4 dictionaries should be used, each
of them having a specific advantage or drawback. In the case of the
Wiktionnaire, it does not include conjugations nor ethymology.

Different meanings are included, if any, for different french speaking locations
( eg Belgium, Quebec, etc ) .

I also posted to the french forum but I thought it might be useful
as well for non french speaking natives.
