I have been working on this, and expect to release this package
soon. (Actually, it is two binary packages from one source.)
wordnet (which you mentioned in your message) is one of the 7
dictionary databases made available by the DICT group in a format
suitable for use by the dictd client/server software. I have
downloaded the wordnet source package from project/orphaned, but
haven't had a chance to look at it. I don't know if that package
includes any more functionality than the dict package.
