Hi Paa Kwesi, Jouni, all,

I added Jouni's site and corrected the link on the PanAfriL10n wiki
page on Akan at http://www.panafril10n.org/PanAfrLoc/Akan . This site,
for those not familiar with it, is intended to bring together info
relevant to localization of software and content in African languages.

Another issue with the varieties of Akan is divergent orthographies
inherited mainly from different groups of missionaries. There is an
effort to standardize / harmonize these, but I'm not sure where that
is now.

All the best.

Don
