I'd very much like to get Arabic and Hebrew which can probably be done by the W3C offices in those countries - they are difficult since they read right to left; but they add to the international flavour of the thing. Arabic without Hebrew could be seen as a political statement that W3C does not wish to make. There is also a Korean Office who can do Korean. There is somebody who normally translates things into Russian for W3C - see the list w3c-translators@w3.org and the page listing them at http://www.w3.org/2003/03/Translations/Translators.html For the Indian languages (Hindi etc) there are several people liste there. There are other language translators listed there is you want to venture into more exotic scripts.

The slogan on the front is not yet finalized - Dan is talking to his W3C colleagues about it this week. He prefers the slogan "We helped build the Semantic Web" - as a more modest representation of the achievements of the project. Other suggestions welcome, although it needs to be six words to fit in with the design. We will also need to look into how many languages to put on the back and and who we can ask to check them for us (thanks Alberto! :) Liz was thinking of french spanish italian german dutch greek russian arabic chinese japanese hindi with english at the bottom. We have the translation for Italian: "e tutto quello che abbiamo ottenuto e' questa stupida maglietta" I guess Max or Chaals could do French, Chaals also arabic maybe? Perhaps a W3C team member could help us with the Japanese. Liz has friends who can do Dutch, maybe German and Russian. Eva could do Spanish for us. That leaves german(?) greek(?) russian(?) chinese and hindi. Plus any others which we think should be in there (Hungarian? Ivan could do that). cheers Libby
