If so, well, I wonder if we could ask where they sourced their texts from, in order to try to get better than HTML format, and then that would mean we could get access to at least a Croatian and Korean text?  (Korean at http://www.wordplanet.org/kr/index.htm and Croatian at http://www.wordplanet.org/cr/index.htm )
