There are following problems. o Each entry of "list of FreeBSD books" contains "book cover photo". So, we have to get the photo image from the publisher. If we can add a book the list without "book cover image", the work will become very easy. o I don't know the standard of the "list of FreeBSD books" page. FreeBSD-specific book will be OK. But how about "FreeBSD and other BSD" or "FreeBSD and Linux" book? o The manpower of Japanese doc team. As so many English doc changes have been committed last year, Our work become very very hard. o There are so many FreeBSD books in Japan, can we really add all of them to the "list of FreeBSD books" ? The list will become too long to read :-) > If you have them in electronic form, you can generally get passing > fair translations from honyaku > (http://www.omronsoft.co.jp/SP/pcunix/honyaku/index.html) > but you have to work at it.

We are happy if English-native people will help our work. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Motoyuki Konno motoyuki@bsdclub.org (Home) motoyuki@FreeBSD.ORG (FreeBSD Project) http://www.freebsd.org/~motoyuki/ (WWW) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
