Written before the discovery of Ugaritic, but a good summary nonetheless.

Does anybody have a link to Lehmann's A Grammar of Proto-Germanic? It seems to have been either moved from its old location at or deleted altogether. I can't find any of the other historical linguistics books that used to be available on UT Austin's website either, although the lessons on old European languages like are still up there.

General question about resources here: does anyone know what happened with the massive grammar/textbook/language-material-related download website 'language.ws'? There's an old notice saying it's going up for sale, and it now seems to be inhabited only by aggressive adware that scares the crap out of all my antivirus software.

On a related grammar-trove note, are people still using and/or updating the big 'GRAMMAR PILE' torrent that was released (IIRC) last year?

I'm just not online a lot, and think I miss a lot of stuff that's going on.

You can still log in and download things but there doesn't seem to be much new up.

I just stumbled on this http://lingvist.info/ I don't know if it's been linked before but seems interesting. Anyone know anything about it?
