Open Translation Engine (OTE) Version 2.0

The goal of the OTE project is to solve two problems found today within the open source translation community:

Crowdsourcing

How can a large and divergent group of users easily build and manage translation dictionaries online? The OTE will provide a suite of web-based tools to bring people together in the various tasks needed to build a workable translation dictionary.

Dictionary Unification

How can we unify the numerous open content translation dictionaries available online? The OTE will support the import and export of many formats currently used by active open content/open source translation projects. Special attention will be paid to Apertium and Linguaphile (machine translation projects) and Wiktionary and Omegawiki (Wiki-based dictionaries)
