Bravo pour cette initiative, il serait dommage que le public anglophone ne profite pas de ce bel ouvrage. Bien amicalement, Philippe.

Thanks for your work on Debian..

Toute ma reconnaissance pour ce travail passionné et passinant de compilations de
cette ouvrage sur GNU/Debian .

Jean-baptiste MILLOGO

good luck

Great little project

Thanks for all that work on that book but you should open up and accept support as well with bitcoins

Thank you everybody, your support is very much appreciated. We're looking forward to get this project started...

Merci pour les éditions passées, présentes et à venir.

Cet ouvrage est une bible francophone, en priver les adeptes de la langue de Shakespear eût été criminel ;-)
Je soutient donc ce projet de traduction et remercie au travers de ce soutient R. Hertzog et R. Mas pour leur travail et le support qu'il m'ont apporté au travers des versions précédentes.
Ne changez rien !

Bravo pour cette excellente initiative ! Libérer un livre est toujours une bonne idée, surtout quand il est au sujet de ma distribution de choix...

Hello!

First of all apologies but my English is very bad!

I inserted the widget (http://debian-handbook.info...) to facilitate promotion of the project and I've noticed that when you click on the page redirects but always within the iframe. I mention this so they can review.

Greetings!

Good project!

R. Hertzog and R. Mas have been an instrumental part of Debian GNU/Linux for a long time. This book is a shinning example of their contribution and FSF France is proud to participate.

Thanks (in advance) for your work !

Bon courage pour la traduction

Saulfec, thanks for the report, I fixed the links! That was a pretty stupid mistake... :-)

Wow, I did not expect this endorsement by the Free Software Foundation France, thank you very much!

Good luck with your project!

Glad this effort has finally progressed to this point.

Good luck ;)

Hope the liberation target is reached! As it's currently lagging quite a bit behind I contributed only to that.

markshep, the liberation fund lags by design. The money pledged towards the liberation fund is also counted in the "base funding" target. But it's true that I would have expected more people giving only to the liberation fund knowing that once the book is free, they would get a copy a too.

Le libre vaincra !

Bonne chance et vive debian

I hope your project succeeds :-)

Good luck with the project, can't wait to read the book.

I have been a debian user for several years. It will be a great plus to have the Admin book available in English. Thank you.

Enhorabuena y gracias, Raphael, por tu trabajo y entrega a "nuestra" Debian. Espero que mi granito de arena ayude al éxito de la versión inglesa de tu libro.

Thank you everybody, it's great to see you all supporting this project! Keep sharing the news, we're not yet done...

Merci pour votre engagement dans le projet.
Bonne continuation.

Hi, just to be perfectly clear: if I donate € X and choose no reward, all of those X Euro will go for the translation and liberation of the Book, right?

Matteo, yes, exactly!

keep great work :-)

Stupid question: if I pledge X€, all contributing to the liberation fund and then the base target is reached but not the liberation target, what happends ?

Gregoire, we'll make sure anyone who contributed at least 5 EUR to the liberation fund gets a copy of the ebook even if the liberation target is not reached.

I liked the idea of this book enough that I bought a copy in French of the Lenny edition. Both of the authors are extremely capable: as a long time Debian user and developer I was very impressed and learnt quite a lot I should already have known :)

Any new edition will be equally good: the prospect of an English translation means that I can confidently recommend a well written book specifically on Debian to fellow system administrators. This is very much needed

Excellente idée, j'ai maximisé mon don pour la libération du livre. Bonne chance et bon courage!

Thank you everybody, we reached the first target today. Keep up the good work promoting the project, we still have to convince many persons to support the project to ensure the liberation fund reaches its goal of 25 K€.

See http://debian-handbook.info... for some more information.

I offered to assist with translation. I am both, a Debian user, AND, a professional translator of French to English (as well as Spanish and Portuguese to English see baldwinlinguas.com ). Since Debian and other FOSS tools have paid my rent and fed my family for over a decade, it seems appropriate, to me.

With the release of the sample chapter (see http://debian-handbook.info...), we have entered the last step of this campaign.

Thank you everybody, you have been awesome. But it's not finished yet, there's less than 10 days left to reach 100% for the liberation fund. Feel free to use the free chapter to convince other persons to join the movement to get this book freed!

I live in Maine in the USA. Times are hard with finances here but I have to express my gratitude and appreciation for what you all do.
I am a debian user for three years now and it has changed my life. The preview chapters have shown me things I still don't know about.
Its hard to get great source information with translation.

where i could get updated status on this book project? i'm really impatient to get my copy already! :)

Hello artemyev, the book is now available. Get it from http://debian-handbook.info...
