Public Geodata needs help with translations...

dear freegis list,

The Public Geodata initiative is writing to 25 European Environment
Ministers asking for their position on a couple of critical points in
the proposed INSPIRE Directive establishing a spatial data
infrastructure in Europe. It's due to come up in the Council, at which
they vote, in about a month's time.

We have had really good response to our call for translators but there
are a lot of countries we haven't covered local language for yet:

Denmark, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Sweden, Slovenia, Slovakia,
Malta, Austria (is writing in German good enough?), Portugal, Greece
and Cyprus (is writing in Greek appropriate?) 

http://publicgeodata.org/Open_Letter_Third_Reading - the text is about
2/3 of an A4 page and would be about 10-15 minutes work.

If there is any way in which you could help or find a friend to help
that would be great; it's important to find out Ministers' positions
before the vote; we can write in English, but I bet we'll get a better
response if we write in local language. If you can help please email
me and / or make a wiki page before you start. 

cheers,
