= Quoi de neuf depuis notre dernier entretien? Le CEVEIL termine présentement ses mandats des dernières années sur la promotion des normes pour la francisation des technologies de l'information et des communications (TIC). Actuellement, nous n'avons plus d'autres mandats à réaliser par la suite. Le site du CEVEIL affiche, en ce moment, beaucoup de nouveaux contenus (rapports, textes de vulgarisation, etc.) et demeurera en ligne pour au moins une autre année. Ceci étant dit, et bien que le comité de direction ne soit plus fonctionnel depuis 1999, le CEVEIL demeure apte à remplir (sous la tutelle du CEFRIO) différents mandats sur la thématique des inforoutes et des langues. Nous sommes donc ouverts à toute proposition intéressante! [EN] Guy Bertrand & Cynthia Deslisle (Montreal) #Respectively scientific director and consultant at the CEVEIL (Centre d'expertise et de veille inforoutes et langues - Centre for Assessment and Monitoring of Information Highways and Languages) The CEVEIL, set up in 1995, is a non-profit-making body based in Quebec whose main purpose is to think about the use and processing of languages on information highways, from a French-language viewpoint, through strategic monitoring activity and creating a network of exchanges and evaluation. The CEVEIL also focuses on the language industry in general (voice recognition, machine translation and optical character recognition, for example) and related fields such as strategic management of data, knowledge management, setting norms and standardisation. The CEVEIL is part of the CEFRIO (Centre francophone d'information des organisations - French-language Centre for Information on Organisations). [Interview 23/08/1998 // Interview 13/03/2000] *Interview of August 23, 1998 (original interview in French) = What did using the Internet affect the CEVEIL? First, the Web is one of the reasons for CEVEIL's existence, because we focus on things like language use and processing on the Internet. The Web is also where we get most of our information on the topics we're interested in. We regularly monitor sites that supply daily and weekly news. So we definitely make more use of the Internet than we do other written sources. We also use electronic mail a great deal to keep in touch with our contributors, to obtain information and carry out projects. CEVEIL is a "network structure" which might not survive without the Internet to link all the people involved in it. The Web is also the most important means for distributing our products to target clients -- sending electronic news to our subscribers, creating an online magazine, and distributing information and documents through our website. = How do you see the growth of a multilingual Web?
