Hi!
I am the coordinator of project kdedevelbr 
(http://kdedevelbr.codigolivre.org.br) who wants translate to portuguese the 
book "KDE 2.0 Development" (http://kde20development.andamooka.org).
To make our translation free of versions,  we decide remove "2.0" from book 
title. 
Beyond translate, we  want:
- up date content,
- up date code examples,
- adapt tutorials to new materials (for exemple the Using KConfig XT Tutorial 
by Zack Rusin, etc)
- remove obsolet content,
- write new chapters.

Hélio Castro was sugest re-translate to english beyond the end of work, and I 
think we can start now.
We are making this in docbook. I maked some toolbars for Quanta to make easy 
the docbook formatting and a engeene in PHP to possibility write comments 
on-line in the book pages and syntax highlights to code examples. 
I can start the english version of this book.
What you think about?
