style='font-size:12.0pt'>I should add that the recent trends in the linguistics
field are focused almost exclusively on the creation of legacy materials and
less so on current archived materials despite their relatively equal
status. Just take a look at the E-MELD webpage to see what I mean.
Whereas endangered language communities have an interest in both aspects:
legacy creation and archival access. <br>
<br>
At least for the North American folks, it seems that the creation of
comprehensive searchable resource is a grant waiting to happen (hint, hint)!<br>
