12:15 pm - internet in Ireland Hello all. I'm going to be in Dublin for 9 months starting September, and will need internet use in my apartment for online courses.  However, most places don't seem to have this listed as an amenity.  If anyone knows anything about lettings: Do most places have internet, but don't list it? Would it be possible to acquire internet (through purchasing a router or other like means), once I'm there? As an aside: what does the term "rent allowance not accepted" imply?  Is sub-letting ever used (most places seem to require 1-year leases which would mean paying 3 months rent for nothing), or would it be seen as extremely odd and/or not allowed? If anyone knows the answers to these, thanks so much!

12:39 am - Looking for potential collaborators for an Irish language resource I run the language website LingWiki, and recently I've been trying to find ways to make it a more relevant and useful resource. One way I've been doing that has been developing portals off of the main page to help people interested in focusing on a specific language, such as the one I've established so far for Japanese. I'm looking to establish one for Irish as well, however my knowledge is nonexistent compared to my knowledge of Japanese or English, so I'm looking to the community for a few people who'd be interested in helping to expand the site. If you're not interested in creating articles or maintaining the Irish portal itself, another great way to help would be to fill in words on our essential words chart to try and make sure the basic words necessary for communication are covered. Thanks in advance to all who offer to help!
