Hi James,

For my dictionary-project I'm working with a text-corpus that was compiled
by myself:
- OCR-processed novels (about 35 novels)
- OCR-processed non-literary txt (a few meg's)
- data from Al Hayat CD
- data from the internet

If people would have other data and would be prepared to exchange I would
be willing to consider this. However, the huge quantity of data available
already, I'm not really looking out for extra materials.

Furhter, is the Lebanese Qalam site still active? Here they were also
making text-data available.

That's it for now.
