I'll be looking forward to that, too. If worse comes to worse, I can copy out the pronunciation page from my vintage dictionary, but I'm told its pronunciation is out of date.... Another related question-- is anyone familiar with Dutch pronunciation/spelling ca. 1910? The reason I ask is, in one of the regional Indonesian language dictionaries I'm working with, the writer devised an orthography based entirely on Dutch spelling, but with some mysterious additions (like vowels with macrons alongside double vowels).
