There are plenty of books and manuscripts in libraries and museums where transcription, translation and commentaries are lacking. I think there's probably a low awareness of how many orginal documents are available for the person of the street to study and look at. http://www.vam.ac.uk/vastatic/microsites/1265_frost/ I tried to learn Latin the traditional way - and didn’t do too well - so I think this sounds like an interesting intiative.
