One of the vital behind-the-scenes parts of MultiLingual is its editorial advisory board. These people, who develop and use language technology, provide articles, comments and reviews of material for the magazine. We are grateful to many the fine board members for their contributions over the years, which have helped to make the language technology industry and this magazine what they are today.
