Thanks Alexander,<br>I used your review and mixed the text from the HTML files from <a href="http://unicode.org">unicode.org</a><br>in the cleaned html files from ohchr site, when possible.<br>I started a version of a bundle with all the html files. I don't know if include the PDF files<br>
or point to internet to download them.<br>I think is work in progress (for example need update hebrew translation with review done by a volunteer),<br>and tried a idea to the index.html file, but is not ready, then I created a project in git to continue with this:<br>

Hi Chris,<br>
<br>
You may not be aware of the following website at Unicode.org (I wasn't<br>
aware of it myself until I picked one of the following languages at<br>
random and started doing some internet searching):<br>
<a href="http://unicode.org/udhr/index.html" target="_blank">http://unicode.org/udhr/index.html</a><br>
<br>
While not all of the languages on your list are past the initial (sh =<br>
status & history) stage, several of them have XML translations in<br>
Unicode, which could be easily converted into HTML documents without any<br>
special resources (other than appropriate Unicode fonts, I suppose, to<br>
avoid inadvertent errors in the editing process).<br>
<br>
There are also some (about a dozen) languages on the Unicode site that<br>
are not listed on the OHCHR site (e.g. Cherokee), including a handful of<br>
alternate scripts, e.g. Traditional Chinese and Hanh Mongolian script.<br>
<br>
Note that the languages codes used don't correspond - I would advise<br>
standardizing on ISO language_country@script codes for any filenames<br>
(Unicode seems better that way than the OHCHR, but they still use<br>
alternate codes, e.g. for Dari, which OLPC/Sugar have as fa_AF).<br>
<br>
The translations are not the same for some of these languages; however,<br>
they do appear to be in the correct languages and correspond at least<br>
roughly.  I imagine that a lot of the variance is due to trying (at<br>
different levels of effort) to explain the somewhat abstract ideas in<br>
the UDHR into easily understood vernacular speech.<br>

This language appears to be extremely similar to Bai Coca above, except<br>
for orthography - notably c/qu -> k, which is typical for SIL -><br>
governmental orthographic changes in Spanish-speaking countries, e.g.<br>
ALMG official orthography in Guatemala vs. Summer Institute for<br>
Linguistics orthography for Bible translations. If space is an issue<br>
here, it might make sense to just pick up one of these, and even if you<br>
include both, note them as one language with two orthographic variants,<br>
