Unfortunately, I posted this thread under false pretenses. Me, being the newbie I am, didn't realize that there are no french(are their french canadian teams?), german, etc speaking teams. I'm only going to need languages of FIRST. Thanks to all those who offered though, it's much appreciated

Actually, there are many languages in FIRST, especially for FLL.
From the website:
>>80 Teams from Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, Denmark, Egypt, France, Germany, Hungary, Iceland, India, Israel, Italy, Japan, Jordan, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Mexico, Norway, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, The Netherlands, Turkey, United Kingdom, and the United States are invited, as well as coaches, FLL Operational Partners, parents, corporate and local sponsors, international visitors, volunteers and spectators from the Atlanta area. The competition will take place in the Georgia Dome, which seats over 70,000 people.<<

Some of you multi-talented students who are attending the Championship might want to volunteer to help as translators.

[Knippschild]

Well, this project is designed for FRC, primarily. Perhaps an FLL version will be made eventually.

Im Chinese so I speak...Chinese, mainly Cantonese so...yup. Im not sure if its a language of FIRST but I'd love to help if needed.

I don't know what exactly what you intend to translate and the importance of it, but I just want to point out that it is really important to find an Arabic translator. Most of the Israeli teams know English at a pretty high level, but the two Arabic teams that attended the Israeli regional (Hoom El Fachem and Tamra) had a hard time understanding Hebrew and English, and it was very hard to communicate with them.

Just my 0.02$

This project has been restarted.

This is as much as I can say.

We are building software that we hope that FRC teams will use. In order to expand the amount of people that can enjoy the use of this software.

At the time, we are putting the multi-lingual system on semi-hiatus but will start that part after we get the core of the software up.

Let me know if you are interested

I don't know, haven't researched that part. I am sure there are teams out there from India... are they FRC? I don't know. But there gotta be FLL teams from there. Let me know if you find teams from there...
