I currently host the largest collection of bilingual Manx[0] <-> English texts (~1MM words). How would I formally get in contact to chat about the steps to make machine translation available (and would there be grant opportunities available for further production of machine-readable data?)
Regarding grants: we have offered compute grants previously with the Workshop on Machine Translation (last year: https://www.statmt.org/wmt21/flores-compute-grants.html, this year: https://statmt.org/wmt22/large-scale-multilingual-translatio...) and we have an RFP, but it's currently focused on African languages: https://ai.facebook.com/research/request-for-proposals/trans...
