There should be an option upon signing up for any ICANN mailing list for auto-language translation into most major languages, maybe route the service through google translation or incorporate that or a similar translator sourcecode somehow into mailman. Ron |

Dear Michael, The mailing list is not the resource that Your client wanted, as far as I understood. He wanted papers, reports, how-to's, web pages, wiki... And I am all in favor for UASG to have everything on (as much as we can provide) different languages. Mailing list is firstly communication tool, and I don't see this as a good resource. Yes, it can be considered as a resource, but I have one practical question for You - did You ever tried to find particular attachment in Mailman (ICANN use this software for mailing lists) archive? So, I can agree on that, yes, it's a resource (worst of all I have mentioned), but You need time (and nerves) to search it. Correct me if I'm wrong here. You sad - I know if I was forced to contribute in a list that was not my mother tongue I would feel less than comfortable. Believe me, I know the filling :) But, it's not a case here - we are talking about UASG facilitate UA mailing list for community in China. I don't see the point of that - why should we do that? Where is the benefit for us? Easy job is to create mailing list for bunch of them from the community, why they need us? All I can think off here, and I saw that in other regions, is that they need third party to ORGANIZE them by creating and facilitating mailing list. If that is the point, I am against that. Sure, I am guessing here and I really don't know why they need us. That's why I don't like for UASG to guess what is behind. Regards, Dusan On 5.11.2015 0:00, Michael D. Palage
