[babel-translators] How to engage with professional translators on Babel

["Antoine Toulme" <antoine@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi folks,

I'd like to know how Babel does when it comes to engaging with professional translation companies.

In particular, it seems a professional translator would be particularly interested into the number of strings she would have to translate. 

There is also the question of scope, where the work starts where it ends. There I suppose we could tell a translator to translate that project and not that one, etc.

Last but not least, I am wondering whether the Babel interface, as of now, is good enough for a Babel translator, or if translation companies would just refuse to work with it.

Kit, it sounds like you have a solid background on this, do you have some kind of process to give a quote to a translation company ?

Thanks,

Antoine
