[FM Discuss] pr about ott sprint

[Lachlan Musicman]

This is going to sound a little weird i think, but my ex partner is a
lecturer in Translation studies (and German language). She was _blown_
away when I showed her this stuff last nifght. It was like introducing
someone to punk. "Why would they do this? Who are these people" etc
etc. They use close source software in the course called Trados that
costs '000s of AUD$.

Anyway, I'm sending the links and the pdfs to her and going to talk to
their l10n and i18n lecturers in coming weeks.

I would appreciate some of this promo material.

Potentially others might want to see if their local universities have
translation departments?

cheers
