I’ve been searching a bit, but didn’t find any “process” for translation of HP:MoR. Being a native french, I can offer a bit of my time to translate part of it, but :
I would like to know what’s the standard process, since a translation can at some points alter the meaning, is there any review or agreement from Eliezer required ?
There seems to be two french translations already started. I don’t want to conflict with other persons. Are the current translators still active ? If so, do they require help, or do they prefer to work alone ?
Do you think it would be a good idea to setup a discussion on LW or a wiki page about translation in general, with the process, the status of the current translations (if the translator(s) are still active or not, …) ?

Shouldn’t you ask them directly? What are the odds they’ll be reading down a few hundred comment in this page?
But I was more looking for general informations and policies about translations. And maybe a way to organize them from LW (wiki or main). But I didn’t get much reply here, so I just went on with other channels.

Oh, I did, and I’m working with one team ;)
