there are international corporations like Hewlett-Packard who do ALL their
manuals in English - by native speakers, all over the world. You might try to
find a job through this channel.
On the other side companies like Microsoft buy writers all over the world and
import them for a few years. This way you might find contact to writers from
other cultures and need not leave your country.
BTW: Last week, from Wednesday to Friday, my ISP somehow managed to kill my
domain and send back all messages to my BBS. This even ment that the listserv
of techwr-l dropped me :-((
But everything seems to be running again. Please send your messages again if
you got them back.
