as aubrey: Thank you very much!

I shared these news at the Scriptorium of de.ws.

I also used the opportunity to inform them about your "Visualizzatore".
This is so cool!!!! (especially the search-function)

And because I had some time (and the best things come in threes) I invited
them to your it.WikiCon in Trento (
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/ItWikiCon/2017/Proposte#Wikisource). Have
fun there! My best wishes to the organizers. I co-organized it three times
in a row for the all-German-Community....
