You have submitted the following information to Smart link corp:

Name: Dennis Gearon
E-Mail: gearond(at)fireserve(dot)net
Subject: language gateways as advertisement
Phone: 541-885-1563

Question: I would like to propose that your company provide software for 'language gateways' for open source mailing lists. This would be excellent exposure to professionals who would at some point be integrating translation software into applications and websites. The mailing list websites would have to provide all other hardware and software. I would suggest that an icon/link be placed on the sites and a small trailer be placed in each translated email as advertisement for your products.

Your request is accepted. Thank you.
