	       Enough of Akha! Isn't there other endangered languages in the
	       world?

    Dave,

    I'm a member of the committee for creating a certification of standards
    for
    commercial machine translation (MT) systems.  I will try to find the
    personal e-mail address of a manager or the president of Transparent and
    get them to answer your questions as soon as possible.

    It may take a couple of days to find the address because they are not in
    my list of personal contacts, but I know someone who has been in e-mail or
    phone contact with Transparent about this.  Given my background in the
    field, they will certainly respond very quickly to my request for them to
    contact you about answer your questions.

    Hope that helps.

    Jeff
