Spanish Translation

[samuellmiller]

Good day. I would like to know if there are any files I can work on translating into Spanish. Thank you.

I second this request. I would be willing to help on a translation to spanish.

Hi @juanmed you can start from the tex file in this repo if you are familiar with latex. Let me know if I can do anything to help you.

Hi @gaoxiang12, thanks for your reply. Before starting, Do you want to get pull requests with the spanish version in this repo? Or you want to have a completely separate repo (just like for the english version)?

[gaoxiang12]

@juanmed Well, I think it is fine to use the pull requests or a Spanish branch. But I cannot understand Spanish so I'm not able to check the contents. Which one is more convenient for you?

Now that I think about it, it might be better to create a new repository for the following reasons: This repo is called slambook-en, refering to english language. Creating an spanish branch or pushing here will be confusing. Changing the name of the repo to something more general like slambook-multilang will be confusing to the already large user base of the english version, (not to say that you might not want to change it and any other implications that might have), and it is safe to assume that the english version will have the largest user base and impact, so it deserves its own space.

I think a new repo is a sensible idea and, if more translations appear in the future, it might even host all other languages.

@samuellmiller let me know if you are still interested in this.
