The i18n team (which have a signle point of contact) can translate into 
up to 80 languages. There are active teams for at least 30 languages, 
including all major European languages, many of the Arabic scripts, 
several Indian languages, and a great many Pacific rim languages.

It would be nice to involve this huge and rich resource in our press 
release planning.

We now have press contacts in France, the UK and Germany at least. 
Perhaps we should start gathering information on cost & procedure for 
pushing press releases to wires over this side of the pond?

Cheers,
Dave.
