[Olpc-Haiti] professional translation resources for OLPC/SugarLabs

[Alexander Dupuy]

Some other links to groups of professional translators willing to 
volunteer for Haiti:

http://www.proz.com/forum/off_topic/155254-haitian_crisis%3A_translators_and_interpreters_group.html
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=245649094887

And a useful link to Kreyòl translation data (parallel texts & 
terminology glossaries) provided by CMU:

http://www.speech.cs.cmu.edu/haitian/text/

While Microsoft has already released a machine-translation service based 
on that (and other) data: 
http://blogs.msdn.com/translation/archive/2010/01/24/announcement-haitian-creole-support-in-bing-translator-and-other-microsoft-translator-powered-services.aspx
it is very unlikely to be useful for quality translations.  However, the 
glossaries can be helpful as an aid to manual translation.
