Project idea - Mapping

Areas to discover:

• combining machine (bulk of work) and human translation (validation and domain expertiece)
•  community translating the content, different models (e.g. pyramid model, everyone translating 2 pages, etc)
• crowd-sourcing it (what's the name of the amazon or some service where people can find little jobs to do and get paid)
•  quality of localisation and translation (e.g collctive inteligence combined to achieve better quality)
•  a student-run entreprise: production, acquisition of titles, etc.

A good feasibility study and reports available from European studies on the topic
