That is up to you. I doubt that anything will happen unless you do it yourself. The error message produced by KindleUnpack for the Oxford dictionary is:

Parsing metaInflIndexData
Error: Dictionary uses obsolete inflection rule scheme which is not yet supported

KindleUnpack has some options to dump data when run in CLI mode. There is still a lot of manual work involved. The documentation is incomplete and you will need to work some things out for yourself by trial and error.
