(My last message for today - I promise!) Some time back Nick asked for help in translating (if I recall correctly) ICANN-related literature. I am sure there will be some within APRALO who would be happy to explore how they can contribute. Nick - could you advise what languages you are looking at (or let me put it another way - are there any "APRALO" languages that will be used and you need assistance with?). -- Kind regards, Rajnesh D.

I'm always happy to talk about this subject :) We do not need translators per se, but we do need people who understand the technical side of what ICANN does - especially things like IDNs - who can help to check translations produced by professional translators. We are particularly short of Chinese (Simplified and Traditional) checkers - obviously it would be very helpful if you are fluent in both the language you are checking, and English, to compare the original English text to the translated output.

Dear Raj and Nick, I may help in this regard. Nick, you could send the documents that you need to check to me. I and the others in Chinese Internet community can of course check them in both simplified or traditional characters. Hong On 10/8/07, Nick Ashton-Hart <nick.ashton-hart@icann.org> wrote:
