Dear APRALO members: I would like to try something with our new list translation interface, and set up Arabic, Chinese, and Russian language mailing lists connected to the current discuss list. What this would mean is that those who spoke those languages could subscribe to the list of their choice, write natively in that language, and the translation interface which ICANN has created would automatically translated their messages into English. The facility does not yet exist to translate directly from any of those languages to any of the other languages, so, there are definitely limits to what can be done. What do you all think? Is this worth trying out, understanding that there may be some issues? If you want to know more about the list translation inteface, see our homepage at www.atlarge.icann.org - the article is at http://www.atlarge.icann.org/en/announcements/announcement-13oct08-en.htm and is itself translated. -- Regards, Nick Ashton-Hart Director for At-Large Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) Main Tel: +33 (450) 40 46 88 USA DD: +1 (310) 578-8637 Fax: +41 (22) 594-85-44 Mobile: +41 (79) 595 54-68 email: nick.ashton-hart@icann.org Win IM: ashtonhart@hotmail.com / AIM/iSight: nashtonhart@mac.com / Skype: nashtonhart Online Bio: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashtonhart
