Postings from ProZians who attended this event Oct 16 '06 Suyash Suprabh: There should be more and more such events.
Updated knowledge about software is something which no translator can dare to ignore. The meeting provided its participants with detailed, latest information on software products in the field of translation. This was much needed as Indian translators find it difficult to get expertise in the technological aspect of translation due to several factors.
I was glad to see that the organizer did not limit himself to professional domain, but also explored the possibilities of social work through the field of translation.
Next time I hope more and more translators come to attend such meetings and get benefited from the experiences of veterans in this field. | Oct 16 '06 Ravi Kumar: Successful event
