Victor,
If you are talking about human language translation, which I gather you are,
then the amount of effort you will need to spend on developing and/or
acquiring linguistic resources and/or building interfaces for linguists to
code dictionaries and grammars, and/or interfaces for editors to

Hi;
Way OT here...but don't know where else to ask ;)
I'm considering starting an open source project for language translation.
Initially, I'll write this in python (with both MySQL and OpenLDAP for
different needs). But the processing will be heavy duty, so I need to look
toward a low-level

Java not low level? It's a scripting lang? Doesn't compile? C is easy

probably my best bet, just because there are more Java programmers out there

Good point. Most legacy s/w is in C++. I'm assuming from lack of comment
that C# is as yet an unborn language ;)

That's almost always the *worst* reason for choosing a language. On
similar basis, you might want to do it in PHP since a lot of people use
Thanks for the comments. It's a serious project. It appears that no one has
yet done anything substantial in open source for translation, which is a $12
billion/yr industry. Go figure. Sounds like C++ is the way to go. Now,
getting back on topic :) I know that one has to install all sorts of s/w

there is another very simple problem with languages like C# or Java.
In the case of C, it is the developers machine which has to have the

It's native - it's the GNU c++ compiler (g++).
