One of my current projects is the translation of Japanese Newton sites into
readable English ( I will be presenting the first site in a few days). I came across
the petition on the main Japanese Newton usergroup, one with a very active
base.
It is at http://www.cyborg.ne.jp/~newtonj/
Petition page: http://www.cyborg.ne.jp/~newtonj/Signe/index.html
Run it through the Babel Fish translator and you can get an idea of what they
are/want to do.

Does anyone on this list able to speak and write Japanese? I don't actually
speak or write Japanese. I rely on the Babelfish to translate the site, then I go
through and redo the English so it makes sense. I am only doing small sites,
ones I can reliably translate.
