I like the link because it's got lots of yummy data to munch on.
Yum! Plus the link mentions the usual warning that Linear A is
likely non-IE & non-Semitic. Gee, I wonder what it could possibly
be. What a mystery, and I find a nasty compulsion to solve it.
I think that it is most logical to begin presuming that Linear
A uses the same phonetic values as Linear B. Afterall, where did
Greek get those values from? It was a highly abstract writing
system, so I find it unlikely that Greek would have reassigned
completely different values to such abstract signs from those
assigned by the non-Greek language(s) for Linear A.
