I spent a busy afternoon adding and editing material. There are almost no links between the files yet as I am concentrating on the quantity and representativeness of the material. Almost all the introductory material is there plus some extra tidbits to whet the appetite of academic linguists. I have received two i'esai messages from the list, and there have been 4 visits - 2 from the U.S. and 2 from the U.K. I'd appreciate as many people from the list as possible coming and taking a look and commenting on the contents and the presentation. I'd also like to know what type of client program/browser you are using. I am also interested in the transfer rates you are getting. The lines to the server are presently quite fast (the slowest link between the server and Sweden/USA is 2 Mbits/s and I have transferred large files at up to 27 kbytes/s from FTP servers in the U.S.). Your local conditions may vary, and there may be temporary congestion at various segments and gateways along the route, of course. I'd also like to have comments from people WITHOUT WWW access, primarily suggestions concerning the priorities in introducing new material and any ideas concerning the internal/external hypertext links within this kind of material.
