Translation manager

I noticed on the recently updated website for Project 2027 there are some vacancies.
Translation manager:

Russian to English translation (only for those, who's primary language is Russian)
Shaping of the text, fixing mistakes (only for those, who's primary language is English)


Now I would be no use for the first one, but I was wondering if you would let me help with the second.
My primary language is English and it would be an honour to help you with this project, I have been
eagerly anticipating 2027 for ages.

I also have experience using UnrealEd, if only a few months.

I would love this responsability and hope you let me help you.

Thanks

Good, thanks for the offer. At the moment process of translation of the mod from Russian to English is on early stage and when it's complete, I'll let you know.
But I'd like to warn you in advance, that there will be a lot of text which you will have to read and correct.
The main point of this job is to remove signs of translation, because rare foreigner is able to speak English as well as native speakers, without any mistakes at all.

Ok, im definitely up for the job. I can understand that there will be a lot of text to go through.
Just so I know roughly how long will it be before the translation is complete?

Noone knows, but probably around summer 2006.

I hope you don't make any spelling mistakes... you could always throw them my way.

Edit: though I'm new, it would be an honour to get a chance to help out the mod.

I would love to help with this, seeing as I am russian, but live in the UK, and therefore I'm fluent in both, but currently I have no time with exams and a lot of coursework, etc. :(

Even at summer (and in the end)? Because you could be very helpful to the translation with your originality.
