Interest in ML and Aperitum

Why is it you are interested in machine translation?

I am interested in Machine Translation (MT) because of two reasons. The first one is little Philosophical one, i.e., the ideology of making all the digital information present openly available to everyone regardless of the language in which it's written or regardless of the language that used by the recipients. Further this would also cause in decreasing the language barrier in the exchange process of ideas.

I did my minor in Text Classification and since then become interested in Machine Learning and took me closer to NLP (a pert of MT). To be honest and I've only only used MT only as an end-user until recently.

Why is it that they are interested in the Apertium project?
