Thank you. Some comments follow.

Based on your feedback, upstream released 0.2.8 a few hours ago.

Nitpick: please move the string on the same line as `base32'.

Please move the string on the same line as `synopsis'. Also, "fastest"
sounds like a buzzword. I think "Fast" would be more neutral.

I think most of this belongs to the manual, not to the description. What
about:

  This package provides a spell checker on top of either Aspell or
  Hunspell, and relies on Flyspell internally.  It operates on the
  current region or buffer, a file, or a complete directory.

Could you send an updated patch?
