<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 color=blue face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;color:blue'>[Note: Thanks for the contributions to this
discussion from several of you. This is a followup posting in which I would
like to present a few general observations about online publishing. I also
posted what follows on the FLEx users list. My apologies to those of you on
both lists. I am compiling a list of publication options which I will post in a
later email. RM]<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 color=blue face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;color:blue'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 color=blue face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;color:blue'>All Martin Diprose wants is a website where
he can (at least temporarily) publish his dictionaries. Apparently SIL is
working on a place within the SIL website where he can publish them, but it may
take some time before it is ready. Martin is going to run the dictionaries
through Lexique Pro. The question then is, where does he post the files?
We’ve got Toolbox and MDF and Lexique Pro. We’ve got FLEx and WeSay
and Pathways. We can produce these beautiful dictionaries. But we have no easy
way to publish them.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 color=blue face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;color:blue'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 color=blue face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;color:blue'>Currently if you want to publish a dictionary,
it appears that you have two choices. You either have to find an existing
website (e.g. a university website) that will permit you to publish your
dictionary under their auspices, or you have to buy a website and get someone
to develop it for you. It seems to me that the smartest and most efficient
thing to do is for the linguistic (or lexicographic) world to pool their
resources and just develop one big site.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 color=blue face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;color:blue'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 color=blue face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;color:blue'>So I think the real need is for a website
where people can post dictionaries (and other linguistic descriptions) for the
world to see. Such a website could simply be a means of publishing
electronically. But it could also be a place for people to post dictionaries
that are “in process”. We need to create a climate in which
dictionaries are seen as “incremental approximations” of an
exhaustive unabridged dictionary. No dictionary is complete or perfect. So
those of us who are building dictionaries, especially first time dictionaries,
of minority languages ought to feel OK about posting an imperfect dictionary.
As it is, people are afraid that their scholarly reputations will be hurt if
they post something that isn’t perfect. But dictionaries are such massive
undertakings that we need to view them differently.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 color=blue face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;color:blue'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 color=blue face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;color:blue'>Once a dictionary is posted, others can
benefit from our work and/or contribute to it. So I would like a website where
every language has a page devoted just to it. Anyone working on that language
can post a dictionary, word list, grammar, text, or article about it. Ideally
someone could run a query and search all the dictionaries on the website.
Ideally other linguists and especially speakers of the language could
contribute to the dictionary in a wiki environment. But at least we need a
place to post dictionaries and an easy way to upload our databases. Minimally
the public should be able to search it for a language and see what is there.
The website should be free. A person who wants to post a dictionary should not
have to be a programmer or have to set up the webpage. It should already be set
up with easy to follow instructions on how to post something.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
