Proposed by: James Hester Rationale: ---------- There has been some discussion recently in 'sci.lang' on the creation of a translation newsgroup. A mailing list, LANTRA-L, already exists for professional translators. However, recent high traffic on this mailing list has prompted calls for a newsgroup to be created to facilitate processing of the large number of messages. Charter ------- The proposed group would provide a forum for those interested in the problems, issues and concerns of translators/interpreters. Examples of topics appropriate to this group are: * Automated translation software * Translation methods * Membership of professional bodies * Accreditation of professional translators/interpreters * International standards for translators/interpreters * Discussion of dictionaries for a given language pair * Software for displaying foreign character sets * Translation requests for passages/words/phrases for a given language pair * Reviews of translated works * Training and education of translators/interpreters This RFD is being posted to: sci.lang news.announce.newgroups news.groups mailing list LANTRA-L Please post it to any other groups who might be interested. Discussion of this proposal will last for at least 3 weeks. If a charter is agreed upon, a call for votes (CFV) lasting a further 3 weeks will be conducted by a neutral third party. Details will be posted when and if this is about to occur. -- James Hester [email protected] From [email protected] (RonDippold) Mon Nov 21 12:49:37 1994 Path: uunet!bounce-back From: [email protected] (Ron "Asbestos" Dippold) Newsgroups: news.announce.newgroups,news.groups,sci.lang Subject: CFV: sci.lang.translation Followup-To: poster Date: 21 Nov 1994 11:49:42 -0500 Organization: Usenet Volunteer Votetakers Lines: 50 Sender: [email protected] Approved: [email protected] Expires: 13 Dec 1994 00:00:00 GMT Message-ID: <[email protected]> References: <[email protected]> Reply-To: [email protected] (Ron Dippold Voting Alias) NNTP-Posting-Host: rodan.uu.net Xref: uunet news.announce.newgroups:5969 news.groups:124055 sci.lang:32633 FIRST CALL FOR VOTES (of 2) unmoderated group sci.lang.translation Newsgroups line: sci.lang.translation Problems and concerns of translators/interpreters Votes must be received by 23:59:59 UTC, 12 December 1994.
