Sorriely I cannot read French. I grew up in the south of Germany. So I wasalways
interested in Italian culture and language. France has been so far. Now
I am living in a distance of about 40 km from the French boarder and unfortunately

I cannot speak French... but I´ll your  informations to the manager of our
partner-museum.

I just tried to find their online-database-entries. Unfortunately the
malraux.culture.fr serveris not online.

Just another question. As far as I know we are one of two German museums offering
online-Information
in Nederlands/Vlaams (before starting this project I thoungt this two languages
are more or less the same -
now we have a mixture because some of our volunteer translators came from Belgium
and some
others from the Netherlands...). In this case I am looking for online Museum-lists
(up to now I know the
Dutch Museumsserver and ELSAS) special search-engines,  and inices of www-sites
in Nederlands/Vlaams.
We are also interested to get links form online tourist-guides in
Nederlands/Vlaams from the Moesel-region.
Could you give me some tips?
