Now, I know it says:

However, I went to the site, and so far, everyone is voting to keep the
list as a mutually assisting study group, and everyone has said "no" on
this particular issue.

Might I suggest a modification of the possible responses?

o Yes
o No
o Yes, in a helpful but not authoritative manner, but cannot commit to
always having the time on a particular occasion, only for providing input
when available.

I think that a few of us could qualify for that last one, which could
create enough for a basis of what you're looking for.

Although I have one other thought - I could ask the professor who taught
the Old Icelandic class I took at UW if she would be interested in
subscribing, possibly just saying "we have a few people with a pretty good
grasp of the language, but if you would be willing to correct us when we
make a mistake..."
