MultilingualWeb workshop, Pisa, speaker deadline approaching!

The program for the Pisa workshop is filling up. If you are still intending to submit a talk proposal, please do so as soon as possible in order to secure a place. We advise you not to wait until the March 1st deadline.

We have already accepted many interesting talks, and are looking forward to hearing speakers from organizations such as CNGL, CWI/W3C, DFKI, Facebook, FAO of the UN, Lionbridge, Microsoft, Opera, SAP, TAUS, Thompson Reuters, and many others.

See the Call for Participation for details about how to register for the workshop and propose a talk.

The MultilingualWeb project, funded by the European Commission and coordinated by the W3C, is looking at best practices and standards related to all aspects of creating, localizing and deploying the multilingual Web. The project will raise visibility of what’s available and identify gaps via a series of four events, over two years.

The next workshop takes place in Pisa, Italy on 4-5 April 2011.
