That is a good rant and question. Jacob Send a noteboard - 22/11/2010 04:24:26 PM
I don't have any good answers for you. Though, I would imagine that it would work a little bit like a regular submission. Find a quality piece, translate it, and then submit it.

Getting a publisher to actually commission the translation of a particular book would also be a challenge in most cases.
