Here are some websites I recently found.
I didn't verify wether or not some of these are eventually allready
listed in the Lowlands reference pages.

1. West-Flemish

Since people have been recommending internet sites recently, let me, too,
refer you to
http://www.euro-support.be/langbel/baarle.htm
for a very interesting - and entertaining -  report (in Dutch and English)
about an incredible linguistic phenomenon, just north of the Dutch-Belgian
border. This is part of a larger, highly recommended site called "Languages
of Belgium":
http://www.euro-support.be/langbel/langbel.htm
Many interesting dialect samples from different periods, complete with
modern and historical linguistic maps, comparison of the same texts in
different dialects, etc.
Have fun!

Thanks for the above, Roger and Aviad.

Some of these sites are already linked to
(http://www.geocities.com/sassisch/rhahn/lowlands/lowlands-links.htm).

Question:
Where should Brabantish resources be listed?  Under "Dutch"?
As you know, we do not have Brabantish as a seperate group of varieties (yet).

(West Flemish resources are listed under "Zeelandic.")

Regards,
Reinhard/Ron
