OSW Wiki - a request for an iberian experiment

[Artur Ferreira da Silva]

Hello Michael and all (especially the Spanish and Portuguese
speaking people -  including Carla ;-)

Thanks for your reply and offer of help, Michael. I will answer this mail
to the list and then we will discuss the details in private conversations.

My suggestion is to begin with only one more wiki for the Iberian languages
(Portuguese and Spanish). The page could be called ".../Iberia".

The links in both the Portuguese and Spanish translations of the old ".org"
site (in the section referring the wiki) would link to the new page.

The new page (the temporized one) would have as Title(s) the expressions
"Espaço Aberto" and "Espacio Abierto". Than you would copy the English wiki
page to that space adding something saying "Work in Progress - versions in
Spanish and Portuguese coming soon".

We will use that as a framework, replacing each EnglishLink into two - a
"PortugueseLink" and a "SpanishLink" - and then replacing the English page
by both a Portuguese and a Spanish version. Our first work would be that
double translation. After that we will add more content (by the way I will
need to know how to add a PDF file somewhere in the Portuguese version).

Am I dreaming or you, Michael, have referred the possibility of giving an
online course on Wikis?
OIf this is true, I have some people interested...

I am afraid that the Portuguese version will be translated faster than the
Spanish one as I have more offers from Portuguese speakers. I ask all
Spanish speakers in this list to please join the effort.

SE HABLAS ESPANOL PARTICIPA EN LA CONSTRUTIÓN DEL WIKI DEL ESPACIO ABIERTO
PARA LOS PAISES DE LENGUAS IBÈRICAS.

E, Carla, muito obrigado pela mensagem em português e também ficamos à tua
espera no grupo abaixo...

I have set up a Yahoo group where all the team will join and discuss the
work. The group is at:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/EA-Wiki-Iberia/

The Description of the group is after my signature. Please note that the
discussions will be held in Portuguese and Spanish and that everyone will
be asked to present oneself to avoid spammers from joining the group (this
is mainly to check that there is a human being and not a spamming robot in
the other side).

I know that Veronique is planning to create a similar group for French, but
she will tell us when she is ready. POUR LES GENTS QUI PARLENT FRANÇAIS -
S'IL VOUS PLAIT ATTENDEZ LA PROCHAINE CREATION D'UN GROUPE POUR DISCUTER LE
PROJET D' UN WIKI DU FORUM OUVERT.

And that's all. Multinational Wikis are moving on!

(And my multilingual message is on its way).

Regards

Artur
