Chuck, here is the list of people I have asked to assist with this:

Bigdan, Chuck, Corsaire, Deepwaters, lefty12357, DrSmith, Merci Alizée, MYGOGT, Rev, Tapetor, Criss_pl, Roman, Sir Wood, Toc De Mac

I'll try sending out the message again to people who mostly go on AF like Roman, Sir Wood, and several others.

What the heck. I'm not even sure how many scans I have or how many of those magazines there are. Get me details and I'll take a section.

Hey thanks so much Roman, it's definitely going to be great having you on board :D

We will start soon once the majority of the "usual translators" respond to the PMs I have sent to them on AAm and AF.

There are 9 ActuAlizee magazines.

And thanks for reminding me, I'll upload all the scans right now :)

Hey. :) I'm not even sure if I've ever seen any of these magazines, but I'll be glad to do some work.

YES!!! Thankyou guys so much for joining!!! You'll make it much easier also!

I am currently compiling a folder with scans of each and every ActuAlizee magazine.

I have found each one to be about 24 pages, but only about 12 of those are pages with text. I am almost done and will upload them soon.

Aaron, thanks for considering me for this project, but for personal reasons, I prefer not to participate in this.
Have fun you guys! :)

An example of how we will go about this follows:

Let's say we have 8 translators. And let's assume there are 6 full pages of text in the first ActuAlizee. Each translator takes 3/4 of a page and simply starts translating(and of course we will make sure that no 2 people translate the same part).


Wouldn't be easier to take 1 full page ? Let's try on the first ActuAlizee.
I take Page 1.

This is pretty cool. I can't wait to see what we actually get translated!!!!

That was simply an example, not what we will actually do.

And so now we have 8 translators and I think it is time for us to start. I will tell each person through a PM which pages they will translate :)

Edit:

update: All the translators have been contacted so please start soon :)

Okay so I've got back on track and assigned 5 pages of translations to do to several people. Once those are done then RMJ is going to put them into ActuAlizee #2 and then it can be released! So the estimated release date is Friday!

Well, I'm not sure what the status is on this, but RMJ asked me to verify a few pages of issue 2 and since it took me long, I just uploaded the last of them to him like yesterday.

Thank you very, very much to all the people involved in this massive project! I can't express my gratitude enough to you guys.
I have downloaded a lot of Alizee stuff over the last couple of years and most remain unorganized which make it difficult for me to find some stuff. But, these magazine translations will definitely go to my easy-to-find favorite Alizee folder!

Concerning issue 4 page 21 (the reader ads) it's kind of amazing to think that correspondance still occured by these means in 2003—mail sent over the course of months. It's also interesting how many people were looking for that inflated plastic "pillow" promo of Gourmandises. Even when I first found out about it, it was considered special and highly desireable. It is pretty cool as a collectible.
(if you are wondering what I'm talking about, I just translated it myself; so...)

Yeah it is amazing how there were not many with internet over there at the time. I remember the majority of the middle class here had internet by 2001-ish.

And yeah there was an add for the pillow in #3 too :D i remember seeing one on ebay some time ago...but it was popped lol :p

What's that? #5 is done? I guess I'm slacking. Still, it's kind of fun (though bitter sweet you know) to do the translations when I find time.

Sorry if I offended you Roman for not dishing out more translations to you then! I figured you did so much already for #5 that I'd give you a break :o You can always start on #6 if you want though :D

No. I know I didn't declare that I was doing it and I guess this is why. :nonstop: Just a little surprised that you got it done already considering how things have been going. :hatsoff: So that's good. Well, I guess it remains to be seen what whoever came up with.;)
Or we can just have fun with all these new smileys.:thumb:

Man this is my bad. When I say "I dished out", I didn't mean that #5 is all finished. I meant that I assigned the translations to each person to do. So it should be done within the next week depending on how busy each person is. Sorry for making it a misunderstanding :o

Oh. Now it makes sense. I guess I thought you meant to Ronny or something. Anyway... now we're overrunning the subject. Good to see that it's going well in any case.

It looks like I'm taking over for Aaronius in collecting and assigning translations.
If you are not someone to whom I have already sent a message in the last couple days and you would like to volunteer to do translations, please send me a private message if you are interested and preferably send me your email address as it is more reliable than going through the forum.
I will probably start assigning again in another couple days as I would like to give people a little more time to respond.

Oh and hey Roman, I'll send you the ones people already sent me for #5. Thanks for stepping in :) Greatly appreciated.
