Hi, I just read this mail, I'm from México, I think I can help somehow, please leet me know what can I do. <div class="gmail_quote">2010/8/4 James Simmons <<a href="mailto:nicestep@gmail.com">nicestep@gmail.com</a>> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">Werner, Thanks for your interest. I'll notify the lists when the project is set up. In the meantime any interested persons can sign up for an account on FLOSS Manuals. Anyone with an account can edit any book. You can also sign up to get emails when a book is updated. I don't use a lot of technical language in the manual, so it shouldn't be too hard to translate. One or two technical Spanish speakers to review the translation should be plenty.
