I think the ideal thing would be a list that showed:
a) things being digitised (with a rough deadline)
b) things which aren't being digitised but which forum members own
c) things which aren't being digitised but to which forum members have less direct access (eg via a library)

I'm hoping inclusion of b) and c) would encourage bilateral deals.  ie my library (friend/maiden aunt etc) has yoruba, but i want to study japanese.  your library has japanese, but you want to study yoruba...

Digitizing an FSI course is a significant chunk of work, and it'll happen quicker if people have the right incentives...

This is all getting a bit personal, and i respectfully suggest GDFellows closes this thread before things degenerate further.

Great advice, onebir.  I've not paid attention to the forum over the past few days, but I will be posting the forum guidelines from the old new site here. 

To reiterate, and with apologies to Francois Micheloud for taking the following guideline from How-To-Learn-Any-Language, I think he states it well:

FLAMES & PERSONAL ATTACKS
Do not post deliberately inflammatory, argumentative or aggressive messages. If you disagree with a person, you can argue with his ideas in an argumentative and respectful manner. Don't attack the person, his personality or what he is, even in an indirect way. This is not why people come on this forum and offending posts will be deleted and habitual offenders will be banned.

So, I am closing this thread and deleting several of the posts.  Discussion, disagreement, and debate are welcomed here, but let's not let it get personal.
