History: Collaborative Translation Workshop at WikiSym 2008

Source of version: 22 (current)

We (((Alain Désilets)) and ((Seb Paquet))) are thinking about putting together a workshop on collaborative, wiki-style translation. This would be hosted by WikiSym 2008, which will take place in Porto, Portugal in Sept 8-10, 2008 ([http://www.wikisym.org/index.php]). If you are interested, please post your name on this page. Also, feel free to write comments about the proposed format. Note that this is still tentative! ---- || __See the ((Proposal: Workshop on Wikis and Cross-Lingual Communication & Collaboration))__ | __See the ((Call for Participation - Babel Wiki Workshop '08: Cross-Language Collaboration))__|| !People who would like to attend and or present * Put your name here. * [http://infosys1.elfak.ni.ac.yu/InfosysWiki/Wiki.jsp?page=Main|Milorad Tosic], University of Nis, Serbia * [http://panflute.p.u-tokyo.ac.jp/~bey/|Youcef BEY], Joseph Fourier University & The University of Tokyo, France & Japan !Relevant topics Any topic that is relevant to translation of wiki content or to the impact that massive online collaboration wiki-style will have on the world of translation. For a sample, see: ((How will massive online collaboration impact the world of translation)) ---- !!Should we change the name? Need to appeal to many constituencies: * wiki * collaborative content creation * translators * terminologists * content authors who need their content translated The current title appeals mostly to translators. How about Collaborative Translation and Terminology? ((BabelWiki))
