[Lingtyp] On making these interesting discussions more public

[giorgio.arcodia at unimib.it]

Dear colleagues,

A volume in the "Conceptual Foundations of Language 
Science" is a great idea indeed. Besides being 
open-access, there would not be the obvious limitations of 
space that a journal has.

Best,

Giorgio F. Arcodia
