We are seeding it from our own found resources, but we hope that other researchers will enlarge it in breadth of languages covered and in depth of detail. We are also seeking to add pages about special areas of interest, such as language-independent NLP resources, resources for endangered languages, and resources for signed languages.</div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>The development of all these pages is intended to be ongoing, and we are looking for developers/editors for all of them, as well as for pages for other under-resourced languages.</div><div><br></div><div>Our <a href="http://lrwiki.ldc.upenn.edu/mediawiki/index.php/Sign_Language_Resources">Sign Language Resources page</a> is still "under construction", which simply means that we don't yet consider it even minimally sufficient as a guide to research resources.<font class="Apple-style-span"> Please visit it, and feel free to send me comments and suggest additions. While you're at it, look around the rest of the wiki to see what we have and how we arrange it for better developed resource pages.
