I stopped by the Verizon Fios page and sent in my phone number again. Instead of the usual “coming soon” message, I actually got an installation date - March 4th. And that’s not a date of when it’ll be available, that’s when the guy is going to come to the house, sometime between 8 and 5.

As you may or may not know, Windows servers don’t have access (please correct me if I’m wrong) to the aspell spelling resources of PHP that Linux servers do. As a result, many of the spell-checkers that one might install for WordPress just won’t work on Windows.
Here’s my idea: Create aplugin that exposes an XMLRPC method for spelling. The method would accept an array of unique words and return an array of misspelled words, each with an array of suggested replacements.
