Hello Pau and the Language Engineering team, I just noticed your email, Pau, so missed your presentation. Greetings from the San Francisco Bay Area.
While I haven't looked at the YouTube video record yet, I would like to inquire how to collaborate further with the Language Engineering team. I'm developing World University and School, which is like Wikipedia with MIT OCW, with free, online, C.C., MIT-centric, university degrees planned, in many languages, as well as wiki-schools for people-to-people teaching in all 7,413+ languages and 204+ countries. WUaS would like to develop an universal translator, building on Wikipedia's 285 languages, as well as Google Translate, etc. The beginning wiki subject page for this is here - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/WUaS_Universal_Translator - and I'll add this video from yesterday as reference. May I add you to WUaS's sporadic, email list?
