I can´t agree more with what you said, Alex. Though democracy is not that bad; at least you are able to choose who will be fooking you !

I´ll translate Scott´s text to Dutch, maybe some other people can do the same to other languages (Mandarin, Alex ?), so we can approach people (press) in their own tongue.
I´ll load it up later today... ...If I´m still alive, because my wife has invented a few new jobs for me (oh, why didn´t I marry one of our groupies !?).

I was lucky and could finish the translation before the lady of the house woke up !
I took (Freeztar´s ?) the last version of the text. And here it is :

"Chrysalid: Musicians for Katrina Relief" is een dubbele CD, georganiseerd, gemaakt en uitgebracht door een internationale groep van 46 muzikanten. Ze benutten hun artistiek werk om fondsen te verzamelen voor hulpverlening aan de slachtoffers van de Katrina orkaan.

freeztar I guess you´ll attack the US market, so I´ll go for Holland, Belgium and Spain (I´ve got some "connections" in these countries), if it´s ok with you. All bits might help I think !
Give me a sign when I may start (just remember I could tip P. Gabriel about it too)... .. .

Cheezio, mates !

Oddly, and to answer Max's question, there are some peeps here that indicate they will gladly contribute to the Katrina relief CD Project and buy some CDs. So, I will translate the blurb into Mandarin (pu tong hua) and spread the word.

Says a lot doesn't it? That several third would peoples have actually offered to donate money to help a city in the world's wealthiest country?

We do indeed live in interesting times...

Ok, here is my rather faithful translation of Scott's effort. You'll have to add the figures:

"Chrysalid: Musicians for Katrina Relief" est un coffret double CD imaginé et réalisé par un collectif international de musiciens qui, par le moyen de leur art, ont voulu contribuer à réunir des fonds en faveur des victimes de l'ouragan Katrina.

Du blues à l'électronica, en passant par le folk ou encore l'ambient, une grande variété de genres musicaux sont abordés au fil des [xx] morceaux qui composent le coffret. Des artistes de [yy] pays différents ont participé en cédant une oeuvre originale. Un système de précommandes, encouragé par le tirage au sort de logiciels musicaux offerts en donation par [kk] développeurs, a déjà permis de couvrir les frais de production initiaux.

Le double CD est en vente sur le site suivant: www.cdbaby.com au prix de $25. L'integralité de l'argent récolté (une fois déduits les frais de production et de port) sera versée en parts égales sur les comptes de l'American Red Cross et de Habitat for Humanity, afin de contribuer à l'aide immédiate, toujours grandement nécessaire dans les zones sinistrées, et aux efforts de reconstruction à plus long terme.

Une visite sur le site www.katrinareliefcd.com s'impose afin d'y découvrir une brève biographie de chaque artiste contributeur et la liste des développeurs donateurs de logiciels musicaux.

Coffret en vente sur: www.cdbaby.com
