	ArcNews Spring 2006 Issue -- Pinpointing the Languages of the World with GIS
		In 1992, the project began generating the maps using GIS, and since then increasing numbers of maps have been included with each edition so that now maps are published for most countries of the world.
		Every four years, a new edition of the book is published, and the continually updated database is available online at www.ethnologue.com, which includes maps and an extensive bibliography with citations for thousands of published works with additional information about the languages of the world.
		Bill Dickson, GMI, says that the worldwide GIS point, polygon, and Ethnologue attribute data from the Language Mapping Project is available to the GIS community as the World Language Mapping System (www.gmi.org/wlms).

		Published both print and online, the Ethnologue was started back in 1951 as a way for missionaries to determine "which languages lacked a Bible." That first edition was just ten pages long and documented some 40 languages.
		Denny Moore, a linguist, thinks the project, because it was initiated to spread the Bible, actually does more to destroy language and culture than to preserve it.
		Not surprisingly, they don't expect the Ethnologue www.ethnologue.com, to be finished until around 2075.

	E-MELD - Tools & Resources
		The Ethnologue codes, however, are intended only to include languages currently in use.
		Furthermore, though the Ethnologue categorizes languages by family, language classification is not a major focus - and there is no way to categorize data by family or to indicate varying views of genetic relationships.
		LINGUIST and Ethnologue have agreed to merge their codes into a single code-set, which will be known as the Universal Language Code set or ULC.
