Just to go off at a tangent for a moment - why do I keep seeing sites
in the .tk TLD?  (OK, I've only seen two - this one and Mau Rauszer's
- but that's a lot for .tk).  I had to look it up.  Then I had to look
up Tokelau!  It's a self-administering territory of New Zealand, with
3 atolls, 1431 people and no capital.  Very strange.

(And to answer my own question, they're giving away free domains)

http://www.dot.tk/vc00902.html (Further off topic - look at that world
map.  There's a landmass between Alaska and Kamchatka which never
appears on normal maps.  The Tokelauans clearly know something the
rest of us don't.)

Returning to the topic...

I don't know if Taliesin's FAQ is on the web anywhere, but this
appears to be the last copy posted on the list:
http://listserv.brown.edu/archives/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind0205C&L=conlang&P=R15280

It does seem to me that while it may not be very FAQy at present, some
mention should be made of the more-or-less official CONLANG FAQ
maintained by Peter Clark:
http://enamyn.free.fr/conlang/faq.html

www.ancientscripts.com might also be included under "Writing
systems".
