Kangxi Zidian, Shuowen Jiezi, etc classical dictionaries

[wayfarer]

Hello,

Long time fan of plecodict here. I'm wondering if historical dictionaries like Kangxi Zidian, Shuowen Jiezi, etc may be showing up at some point for pleco. Admittedly, they would probably not see much use outside of the serious academic crowd. Still I imagine it could be free or cheap to acquire due to the age (and thus open-source nature, yea?).

Looking forward to the Gudai Hanyu Zidian!

Good points about Shuowen / Kangxi - with public-domain works like those we probably are better off letting the community convert them while we concentrate on titles that need proper license agreements / copy-protection / etc.
