It is the standardization organism of the Arab league, they standardize translations of Technical/Scientific terms among other things. I have two of their dictionaries. Of course the problem is that some of the translated terms are not very natural or up-to-date, and there are a lot of new terms which are simply missing. But globally, they are good dictionaries. Another issue is that they are not available online. Maybe we should contact them and expose the necessity of having those dictionaries online for the benefit of all. Aren't they supposed to be a non-profit organization ? ;-) We should also be able to contribute somehow to that work (based upon our 'practical' experience), at least by submitting proposals or such. But I think that depends on the... QAC ;) Salam, PS: BTW, whose website is it? Is it of a Moroccan institution? -- Youcef R.
