We (Alain Désilets and Seb Paquet) are thinking about putting together a workshop on collaborative, wiki-style translation. This would be hosted by WikiSym 2008, which will take place in Porto, Portugal in Sept 8-10, 2008 (http://www.wikisym.org/index.php).

If you are interested, please post your name on this page. Also, feel free to write comments about the proposed format.

Note that this is still tentative!

Should we change the name?

Need to appeal to many constituencies:

• wiki
• collaborative content creation
• translators
• terminologists
• content authors who need their content translated

The current title appeals mostly to translators.

How about

Collaborative Translation and Terminology?
