Check out this. There's Turkish in there.
EDIT: Chung posted almost at the same time with the same link. Since he did it a few seconds later, I can't delete this post. Please check below.

Unfortunately not much now. Basically it seems that only Anya and I are continuing with the language. hrhenry is also studying it but he generally doesn't get involved in TAC.
I've set up a poll to determine interest in the teams that I started including the Turkish one.
As for my plans with Turkish next year, I plan to continue working at minimum with "Turkish Self Study Course" since its lessons are short and I gain a sense of progress as I finish each chapter's exercises, however small the amount of "new" grammar and vocabulary that is introduced in each chapter.

Finally finished updating the list. After approximately a day and half, we have 35 participants (ended with plumbem, just a note to myself to know where to start adding more tommorrow)
The formating of the list is a bit tricky but I hope you can orient in it (I'll try to improve it a bit next time).
I didn't put there people or their languages with the intention to go for the individual challenge. If you posted something like "I may join a team", you are still there.
I don't think the team Eastern Europe would be such a good solution, especially as it would mean merging two separate cultures and overlapping with Russian team too much. I think Iberia might be good. And the Eastern Europe would make sense to be appropriately sorted between Cerntral Europe (basically Czech, Slovak and Polish, unless Polish is strong again in the 2014) and the real Eastern Europe (which will probably overlap somehow with the Russian team). But I love those ideas like Team ONE.
Will there be enough people to continue Kofola? It may be a good thing to choose a new name however for a new year. We've had some successful learners of these languages and a few new ones (like tajosto).
Spanish appears to be as strong as always and so does French. Perhaps those two may deserve two tems: Spanish beginner and advanced and French beginner and advanced?
Congrats to Dutch, this htlal subculture seems to be flourishing! Great enthusiasm.

Haven't tried this TAC thing before (or, for that matter, any sort of log-keeping), but now that I have a rather clear goal might as well give it a shot. Don't see much interest for Japanese in this thread so far, but if enough people to form a team assemble I'd be glad to join. I don't have much experience with the CEFR and can only very approximately place my current level around B2, but, to speak in concrete terms, I passed the Summer JLPT N2 quite comfortably, but my performance on Sunday's N1 was underwhelming, to say the least. My base goal is, quite simply, to pass the JLPT N1 next year, the stretch goal being to reach C1 in the active skills as well [to clarify for those not in the know, JLPT only tests passive skills, the numbering is in reverse order from N5 to N1, and N1 is assumed to be around passive C1~C2]. I probably won't be able to update my log very frequently, having a full-time job and all, but I'll do my best to take part in team activities.
