<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Dear
Lowlanders,</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">last June
(22.06.2008) I already informed you paranthetically, that I had brought online
one of the outstanding resources of classical modern time Low Saxon, in this
case Westphalian:<br style="">

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: black;" lang="DE"><span style="word-spacing: 0px;">F. W. Lyra:

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Meanwhile,
our friend Heiko Evermann has thankworthly cured the OCR-processing
of the facsimile and is now managing the proofreading of the OCR-text on the
Distributed Proofreaders side of the Gutenberg Project (FAQ on this
international cultural undertaking: <a href="http://www.pgdp.net/c/faq/ProoferFAQ.php" target="_blank">http://www.pgdp.net/c/faq/ProoferFAQ.php</a> ).</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">This
proofreading undertaking will result in an electronically readable, searchable
and evaluable text format of the Lyra work!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Whoever is
disposed to know somewhat more on classical Low Saxon and Westphalian and is
willing to contribute to a sooner completion a this project should join us at:</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">I suppose,
a big quota of the proofreading of Lyra's book will be done by myself, but any
help is desired. And I promise you - as I did a year ago when calling for
participation in Heiko's Lübben project of Mittelniederdeutsches
