(Since I know there are some publishing-interested types on my list here, I'm passing this info along. Of course, this also reminds me that I never have put together that publishing salon I once talked about, but that's a topic to resume another time.)

BTW, know of any publishers or presses who are looking to hire translators or translation project managers?

I'll pass that along, though I think that the person in question has already interviewed there and ruled it out as a bad fit.
