Dear Lazyweb: Esperanto and Gmail

A friend of a friend has done the work needed to localize Gmail in Esperanto. The FOAF has pitched it to Google (no strings attached), but they didn't seem very interested - at least, the Googlist he talked to didn't seem so interested. I tried to help by putting the FOAF in touch with one of the Google Open Source people, but to no avail.

However, now that I have seen Google's Spam, time, and you: An educational video from Gmail I know that the Google team cares about Esperanto at least as much as dancing - heck, it is one of the reasons that they fight spam (right at the end of the video.)

So Lazyweb, who do I talk to at Google to help the friend of my friend help Google to localize Gmail into Esperanto?

    Personally I wouldn't hold out much hope; I'm still waiting for them to finish localising Google Maps into British English.
