Thanks, Margot.

I have added links to our Zeelandic online resource guide
(http://www.geocities.com/sassisch/rhahn/lowlands/links_zeeuws.html).

Also, you might be interested to know that lately we have been joined by some
more people who expressed special interest in Zeelandic.

Best wishes,

Regards,
Reinhard/Ron
