Thank you, John.  This reference is helpful.  The report of the workshop on
African languages and the internet that Tassé writes of is on-line at
http://www.geneva2003.org/bamako2002/doc_html/languagesandinternet-en.html .
I've been thinking it is not too early to consider where we are with respect
to the various points and recommendations brought up in that workshop.
