As i have seen we have two different kind of aluminium in this pack.
The aluminium from Gregtech (i think) you can get from Bauxite, and the Aluminium ore (dont know from where) that you can use for Torches.
First of all....there should be only one aluminium in further versions.
but for now: the Omni Tools mod has this Forge Lexicon to transform items, like Silver.
Is it possible to add the aluminium to the list? if yes, how?

XYcraft gives you the other aluminium, but somehow I don't think either will put the recipies into forge dictionary, far more likely that xy will change it to some space age metal that is fictional. possibly unobtainium.
That would be quite an odd name for an ore that's so common.

To be brutally honest, GregTech plays so fast and loose with the Ore Dictionary and implements every metal from every other mod ever that I am considering auto-disabling the Lexicon (and possibly OmniTools altogether) if GregTech is installed, there are simply too many avenues of exploits with it in. And Greg has said the same thing, but in reverse; "The Lexicon allows for exploiting." The Lexicon reads the Ore Dictionary. If a modder happens to take a crayon to it, it'll read that too.

Yeah, but there was that controversy between Greg and Soaryn a while back, and, until XYcraft has a full release, I don't think we will be seeing XYcraft GregTech compatibility any time soon.
