Re: [ga] FW: Assistance with translation

[Hugh Dierker <hdierker2204@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am becoming concerned over the innaction on these multilingual/cultural initiatives.
   
  But I think there are solutions.
   
  Is they any translator/verifier that refuses to do it on a volunteer non-paid basis?
  Are there any that would refuse payment?;-)
  Who is getting paid by ICANN to get this done?

  Roberto,

The ITU made a commitment to carry out its work in six
official languages. It backed up that commitment with
a budget for translations/interpretations.

Is there any particularly good reason why ICANN (with
US$50 million in revenues) must rely on volunteers
instead of a professional staff?

... for your consideration, an ITU budget for work in
six languages --
