Hic un altere opportunitate pro voluntarios...
Le projecto BABEL... multo babylonic ma
non pro multo jam que le turre es virtual e
non actual... :-))) Ma le projecto necessita
traductores e si vos lege lo, vos notara le
absentia de Interlingua como lingua in le
projecto... Le Esperanto es illac... proque
non le Interlingua... esque nos ha alcun
brave e intrepide traductores?

>The recent request for pro bono translators for Babel, the multilingual,

(http://www.towerofbabel.com)
>was very successful. So far we have no less than 50 translators from all
over

most

>exciting project happening on the Internet. The response has been so
>overwhelming that we recently built thirty mailing lists in order to be
able to

of
>us. The purpose of the lists, obviously, is so that the translators can
meet
>and
>get to know each other and decide whom is going to translate which articles
on
>the site.
>
>(Toss in the fact that we currently have 58 writers who have contributed or
are

>contributing to the pages and suddenly you realize that there are over one
>hundred people to credit for the Babel site...so far. Incredible.)

>And if you have a look at the homepage now you'll find that as of this
writing
>we currently have a total of thirteen portals for all of the various
languages
>which we now have translations of the original English homepage and
Manifesto
>Destiny page, all set for the translations of the rest of the contents of
the

are
>English, Spanish, Russian, German, Swiss German, Italian, Polish, Romanian,

get

HTML.
>Present and future translators also have the opportunity to have their
resume
