chinese translation on perl subject

Qiang on 2005-01-06T09:11:31

me and few chinese perl users are thinking/working on translating some perl resources to chinese.

currently I am focusing on perl introduction (Perl featuers, culture, what does perl do, etc) The main purpose for this work is to introduce perl to chinese users and let them know how useful perl is.

the materials i want to translate include:

* some cool use of perl

* importance of Perl

* LWP basic

* progress meter

* some Merlyn's columns - thought I think i need to ask for permission first.

* i will look into tutorials from perlmonks later.

anything else ?

suggestion welcome!

## UPDATE
rearranged sentences


Yay

I love the idea of my LWP article being translated into Chinese! I'm very flattered!

Some of my my Perl Journal articles might be worth translating, I don't know. I'm particularly happy with "A User's View of Object-Oriented Modules". Or hell, maybe his publisher will pay ($$$!) you to produce a real actual for-print translation!

Also, if you want your head to explode, you might think about translating Higher-Order Perl , the best book written about Perl in about the past decade. Ask MJD about whether Chinese translations can be freely available online, or what; I don't remember what his contract says.

I just noticed I mis-pasted a sentence in my last reply, so it makes no sense! Here's the correction:

thanks for the suggestions!!

some of us working on the perl/tk book right now so the resource is pretty limited. I won't be able to work all of them by myself but i will pass them on to other people.

I may bother you with the LWP article later :)
