Dear Ven. Pandita, Badra, and friends,

Your objectives 1 to 3 are the materials that I was looking for a few months ago as a beginner searching blindly through the internet for information on learning Pali through self study. In the end, anything that has the words "Pali, learn, study" were downloaded.

Your discussion remind me of the headeache in organizing the downloaded Pali learning materials into a cohesive content system so that time is not wasted in searching for them in the local computer.

A crude desktop organizer was created to reduce the headeache. As it might be useful to other beginners, it was refined into a Pali Content Management System for beginners available for download at the group repository.

During system analysis and design, one of the main problems is the database and delivery system. Many simple databases were considered based on simple resources available to the end users ranging from text file to xml. In the end the search was narrowed down to using html as the database and delivery mechanism since update is not a frequent problem as compared to news item. Html is simple to build and operate, and is independent of any operaing system.

Please kindly let me know if you need a volunteer.

Metta,

Harry
