[ddots-l] Re: Localizing Dancing Dots' GOODFEEL Braille Music Translator: German Version of Lime and Lime Aloud

Thank you so much, Frank.  We just may have to do some of this localization
with a dedicated group of volunteers.

Anyone who wants to volunteer to be a part of a group translation project,
please E-mail to Dr. Lippold Haken: lippold@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 

Lippold will coordinate efforts to avoid duplication and to speed up the
process.

Of course, we are looking for interested organizations who wish to sponsor a
translation project for their own native language.  To our international
customers: please petition your national organization for the blind or
assistive technology supplier to get involved to promote music literacy in
your own language.  Dr. Haken and Dancing Dots will be happy to work
together with any interested organization.

Regards,
Bill

If it's of any help to you Bill, I could help you out with the Spanish
version.
I've never used this software, but for what it's worth, here I am!
