Mario (on the mailing list):
I believe Jiri has set up a MatPLC mailing list for
German speakers.
It automatically translates the messages sent to that
list and
re-sends them to this list in English, and vice-versa.
...
Jiri, can you please confirm my understanding on this
subject?

Jiri:
Yes, that's how it was set up. However, looking at the
archives just
now, it seems like it broke down in May 2002. The
webpage of the
translation service (t-mail.com) says that they are
basically winding
down, not quite pulling the plug, but not maintaining
it, either.

I won't be able to look into it until March, so I'm
filing a bug about
that for myself. If someone else knows of such a
service elsewhere,
please let me know.

That's assuming we want to try to resurrect it; the
other option is to declare it a failure and bury it.
