Are there open source MT efforts that are close enough to merit
scrutiny? In order to be able to provide high quality result, you
would need not only a motivated, well-intentioned group of people, but
some of the smartest people in the field working on it.  I doubt we
could more than kickstart an effort, but perhaps financial backing at
significant scale could at least help a non-profit, open source effort
to develop enough critical mass to go somewhere.

I would like to add that (I'm no specialist of this subject) translating natural language probably need at least a large set of existing translations, at least to get read of "obvious well known" idiotisms like "kitchen sink" translated "usine à gaz" when you are speaking of a software for example. On this regard, we probably have such a base with wikisource. What do you think?



All best,
Erik
