That's a funny idea. But I don't really agree with one sentence : "promoting linguistic diversity online means being able to communicate in any language you choose without having to make digital content available for non-speakers". Well, of course speaking a lot of languages will allow you to communicate with more people. But as other may not, it's better to build widely multilingual websites and other digital contents. -------------------------------- Bernard Chardonneau (France) Phone : [33] 9 72 36 32 90 GSM phone : [33] 7 69 46 16 31 Multilingual websites for my free softwares : http://libremail.free.fr and http://libremail.tuxfamily.org http://cyloop.tuxfamily.org (mainly translated with Apertium) My general website (in french only) http://bech.free.fr ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Apertium-stuff mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/apertium-stuff
