I added a few pages to my site about dialects in Belgium (+ South Nl):

- a map with the dialect area's as they are thought to have been in the 13th
century:

- a map with the language border line in Northern France, as it was between
the wars:
http://home-13.tiscali-business.nl/%7Etpm09245/lang/lg/fra/pee1.htm
with the Dutch names for quite some municipalities in France added.

- a text about the social behaviour of the lady of the "castle" in Northern
France.
Her position: "Lets support the Flemish cause, since this keeps the
"classes" separated".
This has been working adversely obviously: parents have been switching
language with their kids, just for upgrading the social status of the
latter.
