[IAEP] College class in SC doing Sugar development

[James Simmons]

Sebastian,

There's a fellow Ana Cichero who is working on doing a complete
translation now.  He knows programming and is a native speaker, and he
thinks he can produce a better book than the
machine-translated-with-corrections that I started.  Not being a
Spanish speaker I can't judge what we worked on before, but I do know
that most of the contributors were non-programmers and the earliest
chapters got the most love.  I would discuss things with him.

The old translation was done with Twiki, and the one Ana is working on
uses Booki.

Thanks,

James Simmons
