Hi!

I would agree with that. But just to throw in another alternative: How about parts from `Ars Amatoria' of Ovid? I just read it, it's fun. We could start with the Latin original if someone is able to translate it fluently. If it's too well-known, maybe use something else. But I suspect that many have read Tolkien, too. I'm also thinking about wanting into this relay, but I'm not sure whether Tyl-Sjok has enough expression power yet; the lexicon is quite small. How long does such a relay usually take? Is there enough time to extend the lexicon thouroughly while doing the translation? **Henrik
