cramm: are you involved in the spanish translation of the djangobook?
13:07 cramm
jezdez: hi, yes
13:11 jezdez
cramm: hi
13:12 jezdez
I thinking about translating it to german and wondered if you made any corrections or modifications?
13:12 cramm
corrections to the original?
13:13 david`bgk
(I got the same questions for the french translation)
13:13 cramm
In the chapters I translated I applied the corrections from the official errata
13:13 jezdez
yup, corrections to the english version
13:13 david`bgk
can we add french channels/mailing-lists/sites, localflavor, etc
13:13 david`bgk
oh ok not the same :)
13:13 cramm
and that's I proposed in our mail-list
13:14 cramm
*thatsw what
13:14 cramm
oh well :)
13:14 jezdez
I see, ok.. well I just started to think about translating the book and I wondered how the gfdl effects the translation process
13:15 cramm
some other translator fixed some obvious small errors in example code, and generally we fixed reST errors
13:15 jezdez
ok, this sounds reasonable
13:16 jezdez
are there any plans to actually distribute the book via a publisher?
13:16 jezdez
I mean the spanish or french version
13:16 cramm
Somebody proposed updating it fro trunk state os that kind of changes. ThenI proposed we just stick to the printed word on the book and later, if we want, we could create some addenda os something like that
13:17 david`bgk
afaik, no
13:17 david`bgk
I'll discuss about that this weekend
13:17 jezdez
yup, I bet jacob and adrian will update the book once django hits 1.0
13:17 david`bgk
we've got pycon-fr ;)
13:17 cramm
jezdez: somebody proposed to ontct a publisher bot nobody replied, I guess we are trying to get the book in good shape first.
13:17 jezdez
yay!
13:17 jezdez
cramm: cool
13:17 jezdez
sounds good
13:17 cramm
Jacob has stated he will publish it on http://djangobook/es/ though
13:17 jezdez
david`bgk: maby you could lobby for europython :)
13:18 jezdez
cramm: well, that's great!
13:18 jezdez wonders who could help with translation
13:18 david`bgk
jezdez, in fact there is maybe a poll for conferences and the winner maybe will have a free ticket for europython
13:19 david`bgk
I'll give 2 about django, I hope I'll win ;)
13:19 jezdez
cool, sounds great, I wish my french would not suck so much :)
13:19 david`bgk
there will probably be a djangobook/fr/ too
13:20 david`bgk
heh
