[Site launched 20 Apr 1998 with some sections under construction.
It is a promising new initiative which
might - hopefully - complement and collaborate with (i.e. not
replicate) online activities and resources of H-Asia Web
(http://h-net.msu.edu/~asia/), AsianDoc
(http://asiandoc.lib.ohio-state.edu/) and Asian
Studies WWW VL
(http://coombs.anu.edu.au/WWWVL-AsianStudies.html) projects. Certainly, the AS WWW
VL is ready for global cooperation and resource sharing - ed.]
