I think that (2) would be ideal, but given the short time frame we may 
have to go with (1). It could be that they require some kind of 
incorporated company for it to count as "industrial". That would pretty 
much leave Prompsit as one of the main contenders.

Things that they could do:

1) Tag Russian corpora.
2) Develop and expand transfer lexicons for Russian--{Languages of 
Russia}
3) Find and align free parallel corpora and run experiments on SMT for 
Russian--{Languages of Russia}
4) Finish the Ukrainian--Russian language pair
5) Make a morphological analyser for Belarusian.

Those are five things off the top of my head. I'm sure apertiumers can 
come up with more ideas :)
