宣布 Babel 与 trivago 的新合作！
我们很高兴宣布与酒店搜索网站 trivago 建立新的合作伙伴关系。
🌐 We are happy to announce a new partnership with trivago, the hotel search website.
他们承诺每个月给我们的社区提供 2,000 美元的资金，总共一年 24,000 美元！
🌐 They've committed to fund our community with $2,000 per month, for a total of $24,000 per year!
trivago 以他们的电视广告（“酒店？trivago！”）而闻名，但也因为他们对 Webpack 社区的大力资助而受到认可。他们有 支持开源社区的良好记录 并且不会干涉社区的工作，所以当他们联系表示愿意支持 Babel 时，我们非常兴奋。
🌐 trivago is famous for their TV ads ("Hotel? trivago!") but also recognized for their substantial financial support for the Webpack community. They have a track record of supporting Open Source communities without interfering with their work so we were very excited when they got in touch to offer their support for Babel.
就像世界上许多项目和公司一样，Babel 是 trivago 应用的关键技术。它让开发者能够使用现代 JavaScript 语言实现高生产力，同时仍然为使用旧浏览器（如 IE11）的用户提供兼容的代码。在内部，他们使用大约十几个自定义的 Babel 插件，而他们自己的 JavaScript 框架 Melody 也高度依赖 Babel 来发挥它的魔力。
🌐 Just as it is for many projects and companies all over the world, Babel is a key technology for trivago’s applications. It enables high productivity from using the modern JavaScript language while still shipping compatible code for their users running older browsers like IE11. Internally, they utilize around a dozen custom Babel plugins and their own JavaScript framework, Melody also heavily relies on Babel to do its magic.
除了这些直接的好处之外，Babel 对 ECMAScript 规范的未来以及语言本身的形态也有非常具体的影响，因为它在生态系统中独特的位置让它能够在 TC39 流程中尽早（从 Stage 0 开始）实现提案。
🌐 In addition to those immediate benefits, Babel has a very concrete impact on the future of the ECMAScript specification and the shape of the language itself due to its unique place in the ecosystem for implementing proposals in the TC39 process as early as Stage 0.
与trivago的新合作让我们在实现让全职维护者专注于Babel的目标上更进一步，但我们还没完全达到目标，我们会继续寻找愿意帮助我们达到可持续资金水平的其他合作伙伴。我们也希望有更多时间投入到像RGSoC这样的项目，以及指导新贡献者和公司参与其中。
🌐 This new partnership with trivago brings us one step closer toward reaching our goal of having full-time maintainers working on Babel, but we're still not there yet and will continue to try to find additional partners that want to help us reach a sustainable level of funding. We also desire to have the capacity to spend more time on programs like RGSoC and mentoring new contributors/companies to get involved.
如果你在一家使用 Babel 的公司工作，可以考虑向你的主管建议与我们合作。Webpack 最近和 trivago 的联系人 Patrick Gotthardt 谈过他们在社区投资的 经验，他分享了很多他们为何要在如此大规模上进行这类投资的好理由。
🌐 If you're working at a company that is using Babel, consider advocating a partnership with us to your supervisor. Webpack recently spoke to Patrick Gotthardt, our contact at trivago, about their experience with investing in their community and he shared a lot of good reasons for why they're doing it at such a large scale.
作为一个社区，我们需要资金，不仅是为了维持 Babel 现有的状态，还为了支持我们与 TC39（负责定义 JavaScript 语言和 JavaScript 包生态系统未来的 ECMA 委员会）合作的努力。这包括参加每两个月一次的会议，也包括帮助实现所有新的提案，并努力将它们带到稳定、经过深思熟虑的状态。这是一项主要由少数志愿者完成的社区工作：有了使用该工具的公司生态系统的支持，我们可以让 JavaScript 的未来变得非常棒。
🌐 As a community, we need the funding not just to maintain Babel in its current state but to support our efforts in working with TC39, the ECMA committee responsible for defining the future of the JavaScript language and the JavaScript package ecosystem. This includes both attending the bi-monthly meetings and just helping to implement all the new proposals and work towards bringing them to a stable, well-thought out state. This is a community effort that is mostly being done by a couple of volunteers: with the help of the ecosystem of companies that use the tool we can make the future of JavaScript amazing.
我们希望，与trivago（24,000美元）的新合作伙伴关系，以及我们与Adobe（12,000美元）、Facebook（10,000美元）、AMP项目（9,600美元）、Coinbase/Webflow（5,500美元）和许多其他公司的现有合作关系，能鼓励更多依赖Babel的公司也与我们的社区建立合作关系，并帮助我们实现资助更多全职开发者的目标，不仅支持项目本身，还支持整个社区和语言的发展。
🌐 We hope that the new partnership with trivago ($24,000) as well as our already existing partnerships with Adobe ($12,000), Facebook ($10,000), the AMP Project ($9,600), Coinbase/Webflow ($5,500) and many other companies will encourage even more companies who rely on Babel to also form a partnership with our community and to help us reach our goals of funding more full time developers not just to support the project itself but the community and language at large.
