[RNLD] What's missing?

[Piers Kelly]

Hi all,

Apologies for cross-posting.



Below is a quick-and-dirty audit of existing web resources for Australian
languages.


Please tell me! Is there a general or particular demand out there for a
web-based resource that is *not* already being met by these sites?

If Tinkerbell granted you one web-based wish what would it be?  Eg, Do we
need a broad public discussion forum for languages? More email lists?
Something else?



*Site*

*Service*

*Main audience*

RNLD

Archived email list for issues in language endangerment and technical
questions about language documentation; links, news etc

Linguists, language activists

AIATSIS

Austlang, Aseda, Ozbib, Language and People Thesaurus, etc.

Speakers, linguists

Language centre websites (various)

Information about Australian languages at a regional level. Some have
online dictionaries and other resources.

Speakers, public

Facebook

Language-specific social networking groups

Speakers

David Nathan’s site

Links to web resources for Australian languages including newspaper articles

Public, linguists, speakers

Wikipedia

Numerous detailed entries on Australian languages

Public, linguists, speakers

(NB. Obviously linguists and speakers can be one and the same, and everyone
is a member of the public!)





Many thanks,


Piers
