update

Dear members,

Greetings! I hope you're all doing fine. This message is the first
I've posted to any discussion list since the end of September so it
seems a little strange to be posting again after such a long break. As
this list has been inactive since July 30, I would like to start by
continuing on from where we last left off. I still have to do some
more reviewing work but hope it won't be too long before I'm better
prepared to resume our study of Kaccayana's grammar.

There are some things I would like to change. I think the change I
made last May of focussing primarily on traditional Pali grammars may
sound a little too restrictive for some. I would like its scope to
appear more open and accommodating to the needs and interests of other
members. So any question relating to Pali is welcome. Since its
inception, the group has been closed and inaccessible to non-members
and Yahoogroups does not allow me to change any of this. As a possible
solution to this problem, some time ago I set up the following website
(available for free): http://ca.geocities.com/palistudy as a Palistudy
home page for the general public which could be used to make it easier
for them to come into contact with the group. The webpage needs to be
redone and I plan to put up a full discription about the group, how to
join, and to have a section where anyone can download zipped files of
the archived messages. In time, I would also like to put up articles
and works of interest resulting from our studies.

Looking forward to discussing Pali again with you all soon.

Best wishes,
Jim
