Civic-tech console — Context Translator

Adapter request assistant

2 issues drafted

Hi Elena. The EPBD campaign closed Friday — synthesis is finalised. While I had the data open I noticed two adapter coverage gaps. Want to file them with the consortium?

Yes, let's go.

First: 4.2M EU citizens are deaf or hard-of-hearing. They were reached only by paper letter, with very weak signal — most need sign language or captioned video. No sign-language adapter in the consortium yet.

I think Be.boosted in DE and Kuurojen Liitto in FI could co-maintain. Both have applied for CERV before.

Confirmed — both have current CERV grants. I'll draft the issue, tag them as candidate maintainers, and prefill the CERV application template. Deadline is in 6 weeks.

Do it.

Issue #87 opened on eu-context-translator/adapters

Second gap: the Romani paper-letter translation in HU / SK / RO was machine-translated. Local NGOs reported "understandable but disrespectful tone" in two cases. Should I open it as an adapter:improvement?

Yes. Flag urgent — we'll re-run a paper round in Q4.

Filed. Two issues live now — see the repo on the right. Consortium maintainers see them at tomorrow's weekly sync.
