Dear Lowlanders,

I received this message from another mailing list, and thought the site
mentioned might be of interest to this group as well.  The only Lowlandic
languages included are Dutch and Frisian (North & West), but under "LINKS"
there are other sites which consider minority languages as well.

>The European Union has carried out studies on the territorial
>lesser used languages and minority groups of the EU. The reports are now
>accessible through internet. The most recent work includes the minorities
>in Sweden, Finland and Austria.

Hi, Jasmin, Lowlanders!

Thanks for the tip (above).  It's a very interesting site.  I am pleased to see
that lately a lot of leadership in the area of European linguistic minorities'
interests comes from Spain.

What that site still lacks in the Lowlandic area seems to be the following:

Limburgish in Belgium and the Netherlands
Low Saxon (Low German) in Germany and the Netherlands
Scots in Scotland and Ulster

Did I forget any?

I am copying the web editor of Euromosaic to draw his/her attention to this.

Best regards, and thanks again,

Reinhard/Ron
