>I am Tochtli Papalotl, a Spanish guy living currently in London. Two
>months ago I discovered Wikipedia, a multilingual ever-growing free
>encyclopedia written by anybody interested in the project. This is the
>URL of the English version (interconnected to the rest), please feel
>free to have a look at it:
>
>http://www.wikipedia.org
>
>Recently, one of the wikipedians, Brion VIBBER created a Nahuatl
>version after I contacted Citlalin Xochime' from Nahuatl Tlahtolkalli.
>It's address:
>
>http://nah.wikipedia.org
>
>We would like to see this site grow with Nahuatl-written contributions
>but unfortunately I or my colleagues do not know more than a few words
>(maybe chicome?)and that is why the site currently looks quite
>desolate. I would appreciate if you could let people interested in the
>spread of written Nahuatl know about our project.
>
>I am sorry to disturb you but I have just seen that you seem to be
>Nahuatl fluent and I made up my mind to contact you. Tlazohkamati.
