though I have only experience with web-sites since 1998, the items marked with stars depend upon a certain amount of commitment from the Gothic-speaking community, with time and effort. All seven facilities of items 1-4 need to get past a critical mass of interaction and I am afraid at most 2 or 3 of them can do that at a time, so that marketing all 7 will ensure failure of them all. If I were you, I would have pruned some of these projects. Or, actually I would n't, but I wish I were able to make tough decisions in time. :)</span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 13px;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;background-color: transparent;font-style: normal;"><span><br></span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 13px;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;background-color: transparent;font-style: normal;"><span>As
you mentioned, the forum is the most important.

Iirc, Wiktionary decided that Gothic is not a living language, so they made it into a category under English, but now it shows up on Wikimedia Incubator, supposedly a place where language editions are prepared for possible inclusion. From the look of it, the Gothic on Wiktionary will be a
rather fast reconstruction, so if somebody creates a competing dictionary, the purity niche is vacant. Or maybe everybody should focus on Wiktionary?</span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 13px;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;background-color: transparent;font-style: normal;"><span><br></span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 13px;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;background-color: transparent;font-style: normal;"><span>I send this as a reply to the list because someone may disagree or someone may wonder if someone else already expressed these views. </span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 13px;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;background-color: transparent;font-style: normal;"><span><br></span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 13px;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;background-color: transparent;font-style: normal;"><span>slightly off topic and directed to all:</span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 13px;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;background-color: transparent;font-style: normal;"><span>The choice to go with latin characters is not all straight forward. I get the impression the standard transcription that is used on this list, among other places, was tuned for Old English or some similar language, where Gothic Y really became w, and where the gamma-looking character really became g and not c. For example: 'drigkan' (standard transcription) became 'dricka' in Swedish and would be transcribed 'drickan' if gamma was mapped to c rather than to g. Maybe the G-looking character could be mapped to g
instead of j and the Latin j may burn forever in Jehenna. Would this be interesting for a Gothic in Latin?</span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 13px;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;background-color: transparent;font-style: normal;"><span><br></span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 13px;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;background-color: transparent;font-style: normal;"><span>Best regards</span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size: 13px;font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;background-color: transparent;font-style: normal;"><span>Basti<br><br></span></div><div class="yahoo_quoted"> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;font-size: 10pt;">
