Hails!

>>Here is the first part of a translation
I'm doing of Hamtheow's lay, which is
very relevant in the mytho-historical
presence of the Goths. I've only done
this much so far, in case anyone wants
to jump in and do part.>>

The idea of translating Gothic material preserved in other sources back into
Gothic is most excellent, pleasing, and particularly useful to me.  I'm glad
to see this happening!  I mean to do some of this type of thing myself as
well.  Are you working from the Old Norse, or from MnE?  I can't find this
lay in ON anywhere.  BTW Guthrun's lament might also be worth a GAV verson.
