Also, these seem to be the "authors" or closest thing to it:
Davyth Hicks, Eurolang (Chairman) Johan van Hoorde, EFNIL Seán Ó Riain, EEU Geoff Scaplehorn, EfVET
Dónall Ó Riagáin, Abakan Action/ Voces Diversae Teresa Tinsley, CILT Jan Diedrichsen, FUEN
Seán Ó Riain seems to have done a fair bit.
Either way, Esperanto seems to have a disproportionate amount of things about it, unless one of these guys is from Esperantujo and just wasn't credited for writing half the thing

(open the PDF, search for the abbreviations (EEU = European EO Union for example) to find who's from what organisation)

In most English speaking countries, we barely are at 3 year old level finishing high school (12 years) with whatever language we do. (I'm sorry if I am fuzzying the truth for the US, but given the amount of things I've heard on the net about people not finish Spanish with any level of command of the language, I'm assuming things are similar in the US as they are here in Australia).
I sometimes feel that Western/Central Europe is the only place where rampant multilingual fluency learnt through school and not through necessity can be found

(Also on the flipside, mathematics seem to be down the drain here compared to Asia
