Community Translation via Google Docs
I have used Google docs for a long time to do my translations. One thing I really like about it is the ability for multiple people to open a document, make changes, and make comments/suggestions.
I had an idea that this community would benefit greatly if a particular novel was chosen and translators, who may not be interested in committing to an entire work, could pop in when they have free time to translate a few phrases, etc. Although the personal commitment would be low, if 5 or more people were doing this on a weekly basis I think that there would actually be some significant progress made.
I wanted to post it on this forum to see if there is any enthusiasm behind the idea, or if it is too much of a hassle. I know that I would definitely feel happy to translate with the knowledge that others are helping out. The pressure to try and get a chapter a week/day by yourself can be overwhelming.
Now discuss :D
