[Wikimedia-l] "Voice Intro Project"

[Gerard Meijssen]

Hoi,
Yes, they were uploaded. They are not that easy to find because they are
things like "file:Nl-Zalig Pasen.ogg" I found this one for Easter.

The soundfiles are there on Commons but for whatever reason the pages where
they were used are no longer with us :(
Thanks,
     Gerard
