[etnolinguistica] preservacao de dados e teses

[Dan Everett]

Gente,

Soube atraves de Gary Simons, um dos lideres na area de preservacao 
electronica de dados (e linguistica computacional em geral) que existem 
iniciativas nos EUA para a preservacao electronica de teses, de 
preferencia em XML.  Como as pessoas trabalhando com bolsas da 
Volkswagen Stiftung, Rausing Endangered Languages Project, EMELD, etc.  
ja sabem, a XML e o codigo/lingua preferida para preservacao de dados a 
longo prazo.

Alguem sabe se uma iniciativa desta natureza existe no Brasil? Se nao, 
alguem sabe se a ABRALIN tem uma iniciativa nesse sentido? A ABRALIN, 
ao meu ver, deveria pensar em algum tipo de cooperacao com a CNPq para 
o desenvolvimento de tecnologia no Brasil para a preservacao de teses e 
estudos sobre linguas indigenas.

Por falar nisso, ha alguma iniciativa de preservar os dados do Museu 
Goeldi ou o Museu Nacional electonicamente?

Abracos,

Daniel
