> As mentioned in previous emails and calls, the ICANN Language Services
> Department is embarking on a new project to guarantee the quality of
> document translation on the ICANN website. It was intended that this
> would be explored through a focus group culminating with a meeting in
> London at ICANN 50; however, given the time constraints on all staff at
> this time, we are postponing the start of this project until after the
> London meeting so that ICANN staff and community members have time to
> engage fully with this initiative.
>
>
>
> This project working group will now commence work on *July 15th*, with
> findings to be shared and discussed at ICANN 51 in Los Angeles.
>
>
>
> This working group will hold regular calls with volunteered staff and
> with key community members whom we will be engaging in London. We will
> also be highlighting this initiative in London at different sessions
> that week.

>
> Thank you to those who have already nominated participants. My team and
> I will be reaching out to you all in London to discuss this project
> further and connect with community members and staff who would enhance
> this work.

> In the meantime, I would appreciate if you could send through any names
> of potential participants whom you think would be able to be part of
> this extremely important focus group. We require participants who are
> familiar with translation services and are able to represent the
> linguistic diversity of the community. The volunteers will share their
> thoughts and discuss with our Language Experts their views and desired
> outcome regarding the best way to approach translation of all the
> different materials (e.g. crowd sourcing translation, machine
> translation, preferred and third-party vendors).

>
> Thank you in advance for your assistance with this work; I look forward
> to seeing many of you in London.
