We produce about two million dollars for each hour we work.

Producimos alrededor de dos millones de dólares por cada hora que trabajamos.

The time it takes us, a rather conservative estimate, is fifty hours to get any etext selected, entered, proofread, edited, copyright searched and analyzed, the copyright letters written, etc.

El tiempo que nos lleva, una estimación bastante conservadora, es de cincuenta horas para lograr que cualquier texto electrónico sea seleccionado, ingresado, corregido, editado, con los derechos de autor buscados y analizados, las cartas de derechos de autor redactadas, etc.

This projected audience is one hundred million readers.

La audiencia proyectada es de cien millones de lectores.

If our value per text is nominally estimated at one dollar then we produce $2 million dollars per hour this year as we release fifty new Etext files per month, or 500 more Etexts in 2000 for a total of 3000+

Si nuestro valor por texto se estima nominalmente en un dólar, entonces producimos 2 millones de dólares por hora este año al publicar cincuenta nuevos archivos de texto electrónico por mes, o 500 textos electrónicos más en el año 2000 para un total de 3000+

If they reach just 1-2% of the world's population then the total should reach over 300 billion Etexts given away by year's end.

Si llegan tan solo al 1-2% de la población mundial, entonces el total debería superar los 300 mil millones de textos electrónicos distribuidos gratuitamente para fin de año.

The Goal of Project Gutenberg is to Give Away One Trillion Etext Files by December 31, 2001.

El objetivo del Proyecto Gutenberg es Distribuir Gratuitamente un Billón de Archivos de Texto Electrónico antes del 31 de diciembre de 2001.

[10,000 x 100,000,000 = 1 Trillion]

[10.000 x 100.000.000 = 1 Billón]

This is ten thousand titles each to one hundred million readers, which is only about 4% of the present number of computer users.

Esto equivale a diez mil títulos para cada uno de los cien millones de lectores, lo que representa apenas alrededor del 4% del número actual de usuarios de computadoras.

At our revised rates of production, we will reach only one-third of that goal by the end of 2001, or about 4,000 Etexts unless we manage to get some real funding.

Con nuestras tasas de producción revisadas, alcanzaremos solo un tercio de ese objetivo para finales de 2001, o alrededor de 4.000 textos electrónicos, a menos que logremos obtener financiamiento real.

The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation has been created to secure a future for Project Gutenberg into the next millennium.

La Fundación del Archivo Literario del Proyecto Gutenberg ha sido creada para asegurar un futuro para el Proyecto Gutenberg en el próximo milenio.
