It would be great to somehow get a list of such periodicals. I
remember that in Mali for instance there was a government service that
produced a paper in the major national languages (Bambara,
Fulfulde...) every few months. Ironically it's probably some
university libraries in some Northern (Western) countries that have
the best collections from which to compile such a list.
Then again, some papers stop and others start. An interesting area
that probably is not getting much attention, apart a few major ones.
