Kenneth, it looks like ethnologue.org has things under
control. I guess there is no need to submit a questionnaire.
Too bad they are so slow.

Noah,

Thanks for this note.  Limburgish will appear in the next edition of the
Ethnologue schedule to be released in mid-2004.

Thanks for your interest.

Hello,

Apologies if I am sending this message to the wrong place. I
was a bit confused about where to direct non-questionnaire
comments.

I was unable to find Limburgish on ethnologue.com. According
to http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/englangn.html it
has an iso639 code, "li", but
http://www.ethnologue.com/show_iso639.asp?code=li returns no
results.

The site search did not return any results either.

Is Limburgish is considered a dialect or an alternate name
for another language? Dutch perhaps? If so, that should
probably be indicated.

Noah
