I can hear the pitter-patter of the little feet of your next Cortina project even as we speak.
That is really cool of her too, so an extra hurrah for Ms. Magdalen Livesey.

Great news! The Center for Language Technology (CeLT) has agreed to host the Cortina Russian materials on the Celt website. I have uploaded the materials to a File Host website and have sent them an Email with the links. I also advised them that I will be exploring Ms.Livesey’s comment: “I wonder if they would be interested in any of our other languages.” Be still, my heart!

Re: Cortina Conversational Russian in 20 Lessons
Acknowledgments
I wish to underscore that this small success in hosting the Cortina Russian materials on the Indiana University CeLT could not have been realized without the collaboration of the following participants:
President, Cortina Learning International, Inc.
Center for Language Technology (Celt), Indiana University
Fellow HTLAL Forum Members: Jpazzz, daristani, n_f_l .
I wish to extend my sincere appreciation for their encouragement, their support, and their practical assistance in this project, particularly that of the fellow HTLAL members. I was but a vector for their hidden contributions.

Re: Cortina Conversational Russian in 20 Lessons
Closure
First, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to all those who supported this small project. Second, Ms. Magdalen Livesey, President, Cortina Learning International, Inc., who very generously gave her permission for hosting the Cortina Russian course on the Indiana University's CeLT website, has confirmed to me that the remaining Cortina language courses form part of an on-going business. Finally, in my view, it would not be untoward were the odd member of this forum to express his/her appreciation to Ms. Livesey in a short message via Cortina's "Contact Us" portal on their wesite: http://cortina-languages.com/

Re: Cortina Conversational Russian in 20 Lessons
This is a wonderful initiative Speakeasy! Have the Russian files been uploaded to their site already? Could we have the link in that case?

Re: Cortina Conversational Russian in 20 Lessons
Hello, Kunsttyv:
I just checked. The files have not yet been uploaded to the Indiana University Recorded Materials Archive (CeLT) website. Here is the LINK: http://www.iu.edu/~celtie/catalog1.html If you're in a hurry, send me a Private Message with your Email address and I'll send you the files. Ciao for now!

Re: Cortina Conversational Russian in 20 Lessons
The Cortina Russian audio recordings, both the original version as well as the re-recorded version, along with a PDF version of the textbook, have been posted to the Indiana University CeLT Recorded Materials Archives website. http://celt.indiana.edu/portal/languages/russian/archive.html#menu It would appear that Indiana University has created a "new website" and that their staff are presently in the process of migrating the materials from the "old website" to the new.

Re: Cortina Conversational Russian in 20 Lessons
To set the matter straight, this small success in hosting the Cortina Russian materials on the Indiana University CeLT could not have been realized without the collaboration of the following participants:
The President, Cortina Learning International, Inc.
The Center for Language Technology (Celt), Indiana University
Fellow HTLAL Forum Members: Jpazzz, daristani, n_f_l
They did the work, I was a drop-box for their contributions.
