For all of you who would like to look at the website as it is now,  
please go to  http://projects.tapor.ualberta.ca/UkraineAudio/

And to respond to the questions posed so far.  The website was  
intended for the widest possible use.  Indeed, it has been used by all  
sorts of people,  from the sophisticated scholar, to the curious  
armchair ethnographer.  I use it as a tool for my own research.   
Others have used for research as well.  And then there have been all  
sorts of other uses that I know about and many others that have not  
been reported to me.  One person extracted the songs.  Others have  
pulled out the stories.  Others are curious about a particular  
village, perhaps one to which they have an ancestral connection.  Some  
have used it for language practice, but most of the texts are in  
dialect and language instruction was never the purpose of the site.
