Update on the work to replace the the current machine translation tool used for the LACRALO mailing lists
Dear All, Just an update on the work to replace the current machine translation tool used for the LACRALO mailing lists with an improved machine translation tool. For a background behind this TTF project, see https://community.icann.org/display/LACRALO/discussion-of-LACRALO-mailing-li... Since ICANN59, the TTF chairs have been discussing with Mark Segall and Corinna Ace from ICANN IT and with Silvia Vivanco and Mario Aleman from ICANN At-Large Staff on implementing the new version of the translation tool developed by ICANN IT on the existing LACRALO mailing lists. To minimize the issue of persons posting to both lists at the same time which would create problems, members of LACRALO will be asked via online survey to indicate * which lac discuss list do you wish to RECEIVE emails from (English, Spanish, or both) * which lac discuss list do you wish to be able to SEND emails to. You can post to one list. A conference call for LACRALO members was held on Tuesday Sept 5 2017 (see recordings at https://community.icann.org/x/yh8hB) to raise awareness of the planned changes to the translation tool used for the LACRALO mailing lists and what you need to do to prepare for the changes. The slides from the presentation shown on this call is attached to this email. The survey has gone live at https://goo.gl/forms/sEOEWqacRYLPk2Xc2 The aim is to encourage all members of LACRALO to respond and for ICANN IT to make the adjustments to the lists based on the survey responses and implement the tool on September 22 2017. Hopefully the implementation of the new tool will go smoothly. Kind Regards, Dev Anand
