Oi galera,
Hey João,
posso perguntar qual o interesse específico em traduzir o manual (ou outro material qualquer) para portugês? [português do brasil, imagino]
yes, it's pt-br. Every translation is interesting not just for the native speakers of the target language, but even the original version could benefit from that. Translating a document we're revisioning the original one, so it's so natural to go back to that and include some contribution.
I usually recommend the FLOSS Manual of Pure Data to new users, and they don't like so much when discovers that it's written just in english. Personally I don't like to read translations, but for newcomers it's a pretext to run out.
I think mainly the object list of the FLOSS Manual needs to be translated: every new user of PD wants a "cheat sheet", and I know it's a right-click away from them, but some times, at workshops for instance, it's good to have a piece of paper to show all the from-basic-to-powerful objects.
Eu sou um dos participantes do floss manual (fiz a lista de objectos e o capítulo sobre listas).
It's awesome! Congrats and thanks! :-)
@Gabi: I want to help too ;-)
All the best.
OBS: João, a resposta foi em inglês pois creio que o pessoal da lista se beneficie. Abraços!
