	The Rosetta Project —
		The Rosetta Project is a global collaboration of language specialists and native speakers building a publicly accessible online archive of ALL documented human languages.
		Rosetta is a project of the Long Now Foundation, a non-profit organization.
		Rosetta was given this honor in the Science Division.

	Camp Smalltalk Rosetta Project
		Rosetta supports namespace annotations in dialects that do not implement namespaces, thus aiding code porting from a non-namespaced to a namespaced dialect and vice-versa.
		Rosetta was designed to file into a vanilla base image, with no add-ons, compatibility layers etc. It is a lossy transformation format, which means it will install as much as it can, but probably leave out constructs (like namespaces) that cannot be mapped in the receiving dialect.
		In addition, there's a stylesheet to convert Rosetta to HTML (for on-line viewing of package content), and we're working on one for automatic documentation generation.

	Word Up: Keeping Languages Alive -
		Now, a group of scientists and engineers are crafting a modern Rosetta stone that will preserve more than 1,400 of the world's 7,000 languages on a 3-inch nickel disk.
		Fifty to ninety percent of the world's languages are predicted to disappear in the next century, according to the The Rosetta Project, a collaborative, open-source endeavor by language specialists and native speakers around the world who are creating a "near permanent" archive of the world's languages.
		As a participant in the OLAC, the Rosetta Project is adopting these same standards so that native speakers, academics and the general public can easily access its language archive.

	Spaceflight Now \| Breaking News \| Future of Rosetta comet explorer hinges on money
		Rosetta was delayed from January after an upgraded version of the Ariane 5 booster failed to orbit its satellite payloads last December.
		Rosetta only had several weeks to get off the ground due to strict orbital mechanics laws that govern the trajectory of the probe to its initial target -- comet Wirtanen.
		Rosetta's mission will be the first to orbit a comet nucleus and will release a small lander to make the first controlled touchdown on the surface of a comet.

	Rosetta Launch Cancellation Met With Mixed Feelings
		For some of them, Rosetta represented more than 10 years of preparations that now will continue for at least a year, and perhaps up to 30 months, as they seek a new target comet to replace the one whose rendezvous opportunity ended with the launch cancellation.
		Rosetta’s mission is to orbit a small comet and then send a harpoon-equipped lander to its surface.
		John Ellington, the Rosetta project head, said he would open negotiations immediately with the Arianespace commercial-launch consortium to secure an inexpensive storage fee that will keep Rosetta in an unused clean room at Europe’s Guiana Space Center spaceport.

	Rosetta To Catch A Comet
		Since Rosetta will have to operate more than 720 million km (450 million miles) from the Sun, where light levels are only 4% of those on the Earth, it has to carry giant solar panels to provide electrical power in the dark depths of the Solar System.
		One of the main themes of the event was the importance of Rosetta as a Cornerstone mission in ESA's Horizons 2000 science programme.
		Rosetta is designed to unravel the mysteries surrounding these primitive objects.

	Universe Today - Rosetta Launch Date Approaching
		Rosetta will travel 675 million kilometres, including multiple planet flybys to reach Comet Churyumov-Gerasimenko in 2014 - it will orbit the comet and then actually land on its surface.
		Rosetta will be on the road for ten years, during which time it will clock up in excess of five billion kilometres.
		Rosetta will be waved off on 26 February when it lifts off from the space centre in Kourou, French Guiana, aboard an Ariane 5 launcher.

	Rosetta Disk
		Project director Jim Mason says the Rosetta Project will create a near permanent physical archive of roughly 1,400 of the approximately 7,000 languages on the planet on one three inch nickel disk.

		Rosetta has a formal semantic basis, but also provides modelling support for different design domains, employing specific semantics and syntax appropriate for each.
		It is expected that Rosetta will allow further design automation at the early stages of the design flow, where detection of design errors can significantly reduce cost of correction and time to market.
