Tom Johnson is, on his blog. You need to comment on Tom Johnson's post in order to win the prize. Second, do you expect the HAT to do the translation automatically, or do you expect to have human intervention? If you expect automatic translation, you'll be disappointed with the results. Just like you can tell when somebody uses a Web Service to translate text into English (it just doesn't' sound right), a Chinese speaker would have the same problem. If you expect human intervention, then you should check out MadCap's Lingo tool, which does what you are asking, I think.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('61241','paul'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('61241','paul','Jeff,\r\n\r\nFirst, I\'m not giving the prize away.
