Yes, absolutely, anyone working on translation of the book gets commit access and a subdirectory in the repository right away, and I’ll host translated versions at http://producingoss.com/ (there are a couple of other ones in progress right now). It’d be especially pleasing to see a Chinese translation; I majored in Chinese in college, and spent some time living there (Kunming, Yunnan) in the mid-1990s.

So just let me know what I can do to help, I’m at your service.

Thanks also for the nice comments on the book, Jon — it’s particularly comforting when a fellow open source developer thinks that it wasn’t completely bunk.
