I'd like to see these organized by cost or by level, eg all free things first, or all beginner things first. Since most of the people visiting this page will be non-Esperantists, you'd think beginner things should be first... but I'd lean towards organizing by cost anyway. Non-Esperantists might be most interested in ways to get involved at minimum cost so they aren't investing a lot in something they may not follow up on. (Since that's not very clear... we'll give them low-cost ways to get started first.)
Also, Kellerman's Complete Grammar of Esperanto is now apparently public domain and available from Project Gutenberg. It's about 1MB; we could probably put it somewhere on our website. dw
