Thankfully, Module 8 is getting on the website. The audio quality is excellent! Wondering how many more files are following and if there is a text? I guess this is the last module for this course.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT. After Chinese I'm planning te learn Czech, together with a friend of mine. Maybe one day there will be a FSI Czech course.

Yes, there is a text with eight units.  The module should be finished within the next few weeks, which will complete the Chinese course.

I am so glad I discovered this site and so thankful for all the efforts.
 
I note you saying that completing Module 8 will complete Standard Chinese.  In looking at the Course Outline and comparing to what I see already available on the website I see the following not yet available.  So when the text of Module 8 is posted, does that mean that the other items listed below are not available for posting and so will not be posted?
 
Module 8 - missing text   to be posted
Module 9 - missing text and maybe review units on tape
             (on pattern  of Module 8 )
Module 10 - shown in Course Outline and missing entirely
 
6 grammar resources modules
 
Optional Modules :  New years and Institutions & Organisations
 
Also, are there any plans for Japanese materials to be made available?  A couple of years ago I tried to order some direct from DLI and they said that the stock had been exhausted and no known plans to produce more.
 
Again thousands of thanks to all who have spent time making these materials available to all.

The posting of the text for Module 8 will complete the course. Although the outline for the course indicates otherwise, other than the Module 8 text. the remaining materials were never produced. That is my understanding, as they are not available via the NTIS  catalog.

You are correct, smoen.  The question about a text for module 9 has been addressed several times in this sub-forum.  There simply isn't one.
