Bisharat's QuickTopic Message Boards

In September 2001 I received a question about support for the Hausa language on computers and the internet. As part of my response I set up a message board using the QuickTopic  message board service called "Hausa charsets & keyboards ." Over the course of the next several years I set up similar forums in response to other questions (listed here in alphabetical order; my posts are under the name of "BisharatNet"):

• Ghanaian languages & ICT 
• Hausa charsets & keyboards 
• Ibibio, Efik, Anaang & ICT (fonts, keyboards & applications) 
• Igbo language & ICT (fonts, keyboards & applications) 
• Langues Béninoises et les NTIC 
• Langues Burkinabè et les NTIC 
• Langues Sénégalaises et les NTIC 
• Swahili Advanced Computer Applications (SACA) 
• Langues Togolaises et les NTIC 
• Yoruba language & ICT (fonts, keyboards & applications) 

Although these are technically electronic bulletin-board style forums, they also have a subscription feature.

They've had varying success - some having been used heavily, and others very little.
