[IAEP] [support-gang] Physics With the XO (in Spanish) by Trinidad Guzman of Uruguay

[Christoph Derndorfer]

Hey Caryl,

thanks a lot for the heads-up. Briefly looking over the ToC it seems that
this is a very comprehensive book indeed which contains many of Guzman's
projects which we know and love. :-)

I had previously also spoken to him about a translation to English and also
hope that we can organize something. I'd definitely be happy to set aside
some hours in April to translate a chapter or two.

Cheers,
Christoph
