Dear Prof. Disterheft:<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>I'm
following up on an item I submitted for posting on the HistLing list,
which seems not to have been posted. In early December I sent a
note about my software for historical sound change, "Phono",
which has been released in a new version. I did receive a
machine-generated acknowledgment of receipt, but have not seen the item
on HistLing since then. I realize that it's a moderated list, and
that the moderator may have a life, semester breaks, etc. unrelated to
the list. But I am curious to know whether I have simply overlooked
a posting that took place, or whether I need to resubmit the item,
or...? Below is the original item:<br><br>
Subject: Sound-change software offered<br><br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>Phono is a
software tool for developing and testing models of regular historical
sound change. Version 4.1 for Windows is now ready for
beta-testing.<br><br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>If you
wish to test a sound-change model for which you have an ordered set of
rules and a set of ancestor words, or if you teach about the operation of
regular sound change, Phono may be useful to you. <br><br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>Phono was
developed in conjunction with a model for Spanish, which is bundled with
the program. <br><br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>Phono is
intended for free distribution as a research tool, under conditions
outlined by the Free Software Foundation (see

more about Phono and/or download it from
