European Tribune - Comments - ***Energy Consultation Open Letter--Final Draft

***Energy Consultation Open Letter--Final Draft | 69 comments (69 topical, 0 editorial, 0 hidden)

I've asked some friends who don't participate here for lack of good English mastery

Maybe we should step-up our bilingual efforts?

You could start by translating the letter to French with a view to submitting it to French newspapers and politicians.

I'll find time to do it this evening then.

Re: Circulation (none / 0)

You and I have in common a Green MEP, Gérard Onesta, to whom I think we should address this in both French and English.

I'm unsure about further signatures. Perhaps we should keep it "ET Contributing Editors"?

Re: Circulation (none / 1)

If you want to sign it yourself, Alex, e-mail me your full name and credit card details.

Re: Circulation (none / 0)

Ok, I'll get it to at some point later tonight. For now too distracted (just got back from my jogging - feel hungry and feel like working - what with the endorphine stimuli and all).

What I suggest is that when I finish the translation later on tonight, I email it to you -afew-, and you then review/correct it to produce a final version (or leave it as it is if you're fine with it).

Re: Circulation (none / 0)

Yes, the question of doing it in several languages occurred to me -- even for sending to the Commissioners. (Since one of our objections is to the restriction to English...)

I'll certainly collaborate on a fr version.
