I quote Josiah Johnston here since I couldn't have said it any better. :)<br><br>>I've started working on OME internationalization with Javier Tibau<br>>and Daniel Ochoa from the Center of Vision and Robotics in Guayaquil,
<br>>Ecuador. They wish to provide a functional web interface in spanish<br>>for APROFE (translation: The Association to Promote the Health of<br>>Ecuadorian Families). APROFE is a non-profit health care provider,
<br>>wishes to use OME to expedite communication between their technicians<br>>and pathologists.<br><br>I'm Javier Tibau. I'm studying computer science and got contacted by Daniel Ochoa to work on OME so the Center can use it with APROFE. I haven't done any perl programming and until recently haven't done any serious work. I hope this will be the first of my contributions :)
<br>I'm thrilled about the OME comunity, and have found very friendly people here. Thanks to Tom Macura for introducing me to Josiah Johnston. And to Josiah for enduring my lack of knowledge in many areas :)<br><br>Javier
