Two years ago today my wife and I arrived in Dublin for a month stay in Ireland. I documented the trip, in Hawaiian, to fulfill a requirement of the MA program I graduated program from last December. We have fond memories and met some great people there. I'm still hoping that something will come through for us to return. No reply from anyone at UC-Cork yet, but we're hopeful. |

Minor correction to the post below - Scoble graciously replied to and forwarded my request for help. Unfortunately the forward appears to have vanished into a black hole. Mahalo, Robert. The effort was appreciated. |

Microsoft is assisting with the Irish localization of Windows. We* can't even get a response for assistance with a Hawaiian keyboard. It looks like Microsoft is working with the National University of Ireland in Maynooth, Foras na Gaeilge, the body responsible for the promotion of the Irish language, and the University of Limerick. I've been trying to get Microsoft's attention to simply get a Hawaiian keyboard included with Windows, and can't even get people to respond to my email. What does it take? * we = Hale Kuamo'o, the state's Hawaiian Language Center at the University of Hawai'i at Hilo. |
