Bengali FSI course and Nepali

I have and have used the Bengali FSI course, that must date from the early 1970s. I have the tapes and the book, and if someone wants it I could scan and turn them into pdf and digitize the tapes. I don't know who is responsible and how these get done, but I am willing to contribute this.

I have also used several Nepalese texts, notably a good Peace Corps text, and I have already digitzed its audio. The author is still selling that in Kathmandu.

Habadzi,

I would be the so-called "responsible" one. ;)

Bengali would indeed be a welcome addition. I can't seem to find anything at all on the course on-line. How did you come into possession of it?

I would be very interested in the Nepali course(s). What exactly do you have? Is there any audio? (still interested even if there isn't).

I saw a message addressed to me 2.5 years ago!

Yes, I have the Bengali FSI course with a bunch of tapes, obtained from a now closed language laboratory. I also have made tapes and later digitized the Nepali texts of Matthews and another one (no FSI exists, I believe). What do I do about putting these online?
