I assume you mean you are interested in doing a translation. I'm happy
to assist, within limitations of doing my normal work. It would give
me the motivation to read the "Brussels thesis". Incidently, one of my
jobs is translating "fractured English" into proper idiomatic English,
for which I get paid AUD 31.50 per 1000 words (about EUR 20 at today's
rates). I'm not asking to be paid, but obviously something that I do
as a labour of love will take longer than a paying proposition. What
it does illustrate is that I would first use Google translation to get
the fractured English, then work on converting the to something more
readable.

Once translated, we can use the company Lulu.com to publish it as a
printed copy available through Amazon.com and other online
booksellers. Lulu don't charge any upfront fees, and still come out
with a list price similar to my book, although yours would command a
higher price as it has more pages.

Cheers
