Re: [Ws2-jurisdiction] [CCWG-ACCT] Jurisdiction Subgroup: Expense Request for Questionnaire Translation
Dear Greg I support Farzaneh for translation into Persian(Farsi) due to the fact that among over 130 Millions speaking that language a very limited are using Other languages than Persian. To have a more wider outreach,as Farzaneh mentioned, the translation would enable more interested persons to comments through their respected communities 2017-01-21 8:10 GMT+01:00 Kavouss Arasteh <kavouss.arasteh@gmail.com>:

Thank you Greg.
I would very much like to translate these questions into Farsi. We might be able to reach out to more people and understand if ICANN's jurisdiction affect the users or not, if the questions are in the language of those who we suspect might be affected. I could translate them myself but I have taken up too many tasks and I don't think I will get the time to translate the answers.

Dear Co-Chairs,
At today's meeting of the Jurisdiction Subgroup, the Group decided to request that the Questionnaire (attached) be translated by the ICANN Language Service. At a minimum, the Questionnaire would be translated into the 6 ICANN working languages; if the ICANN Language Service has the capability to translate into other languages, it is possible that the Subgroup may wish to have the Questionnaire translated into one or more additional languages.
It is expected that some costs will be allocated to the CCWG for performing this service. Therefore, on behalf of the Subgroup, I am seeking your approval to incur the expense of translation. These costs are not expected to be material.
Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this request. In any event, I will seek an estimate of time and costs from Language Services.
Thank you for considering this request.
Best regards,
Greg Shatan

FWIW, I note that Farzeneh offered to translate to Farsi on personal level which is fine as it's a separate arrangement (those can be published under community translated versions with the appropriate disclaimer). However, I will strongly advice against "formerly" going out of the official UN languages. If indeed we want to do that then we should just make a call for people to suggest more languages and there shouldn't be any reason to disqualify a language by the number of people speaking it. I hope ICANN is ready to foot the bills because I will like it be translated to a few languages as well; Yoruba, Hausa, and Igbo ;-) Cheers!

Sorry Seun, I was not clear. I am not suggesting to translate on my personal level. I am doing too many things at ICANN on my personal level. I will end up doing it if this group does not support, but I am afraid I have too much to do and really cannot add to it by translating the questions and answers. Translating the questions and answers from English to Farsi and vice versa has a very justifiable reason. Iran is definitely affected by US sanctions which might affect their access to domain names and official language of Iran is Farsi. If any other country's language is not listed as a UN language but is affected by OFAC and sanctions, that language should be included too. We don't even know how many answers we are going to receive how can we start talking about expenses! I would not argue it's about a number of people speaking, but the people who could be affected.

Whom you defending pls
SO: Those who are probably not reading this.
Are you defending ICANN.
SO: Maybe as she needs to be a global organisation as much as possible.
all other countries under sanction receive the document in their language Except IRAN
SO: Ah okay this is new information for me. Since there is an existing precedence as you seem to imply then I would strongly support translation for Iran.
Pls kindly be fair or kindly do not interfere with the legitimate request of Iranian community
SO: I was actually trying to be fair by making sure that people from my country also have the opportunity to participate more and that can be ensured if they get the translations in their languages as well. I do not think it will be fair to serve some countries and not serve the other. However since you have now said ICANN already does translations for other sanctioned countries except Iran then I rest my case and would strongly support ICANN supporting Farsi[1] translation.
Regards 1. For humour, occasionally I call Farzeneh Farsi and never knew it was a language. ;-)

Sorry Seun, I was not clear. I am not suggesting to translate on my personal level. I am doing too many things at ICANN on my personal level. I will end up doing it if this group does not support, but I am afraid I have too much to do and really cannot add to it by translating the questions and answers.
Translating the questions and answers from English to Farsi and vice versa has a very justifiable reason. Iran is definitely affected by US sanctions which might affect their access to domain names and official language of Iran is Farsi. If any other country's language is not listed as a UN language but is affected by OFAC and sanctions, that language should be included too.
We don't even know how many answers we are going to receive how can we start talking about expenses!
I would not argue it's about a number of people speaking, but the people who could be affected.
Thanks

Dear Co-Chairs,
At today's meeting of the Jurisdiction Subgroup, the Group decided to request that the Questionnaire (attached) be translated by the ICANN Language Service. At a minimum, the Questionnaire would be translated into the 6 ICANN working languages; if the ICANN Language Service has the capability to translate into other languages, it is possible that the Subgroup may wish to have the Questionnaire translated into one or more additional languages.
It is expected that some costs will be allocated to the CCWG for performing this service. Therefore, on behalf of the Subgroup, I am seeking your approval to incur the expense of translation. These costs are not expected to be material.
Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this request. In any event, I will seek an estimate of time and costs from Language Services.
Thank you for considering this request.
Best regards,
Greg Shatan
