Subject:Slightly OT request for help on archiving project

I have a data collecting and archiving project running around in
my head that has recently spilled out onto paper. (Its about
collecting data from Eastern Christian sites in the Middle East
and beyond.)
The projected costs for the first year are a little under $80k for
my salary and a pilot project. The data collection and archives
would be all be digital and I plan on using METS and MODS for the
metadata. A copy of all archived material will be heading to the
LoC (as well as other places, with the major archive being the
web).
What I need is some advice on potential funders and sponsors.
Can anyone help me, please? If you can, please reply to me
directly rather than to the list.
Thanks for your toleration of this intrusion, and for your help.
Doug Morrison-Cleary
PS: Assuming the project gets off the ground, I will send the list
lots of updates as I reach the metadata stage ;-)
