Current South Slavic demographics, etc.

[Jules Levin]

In preparing course materials for an into to Slavic langs, I suddenly
realized that the seemingly authoritative Web site with data on some 5000+
langs of the world, has some egregious errors in population numbers for the
langs of former Yugoslavia, and Bulgaria and Moldova.  For example, while
Serbian and Croatian, and Bosnian are listed as separate languages, the ##
of speakers given seem to simply be the total numbers for the provinces of
former Yugo.  Check it out.
Question:  Are there better, more current numbers?  (realizing, of course,
the problems of a count with so many people dead or displaced)
Also, is there a web site for Moldovan, with accurate numbers on speakers,
separated from Bulgarian?
Thanks,
Jules Levin
