A new site was put up two days ago titled “Center for Endangered Language Technologies.” It is part of the Language Technologies Institute at Carnegie Mellon University.
The stated goal of CELT is “to aid the preservation, revitalization, documentation and other activities related to Endangered Languages through the use of novel accessible language technologies.”
This sounds like it will be a very exciting program!
