Greetings everybody, i take this opportunity to announce to the python community that Arabic translations for the docs have started at
https://github.com/Abdur-rahmaanJ/py-docs-ar as per the PEP written by @JulienPalard and @Mariatta, we are working on the tutorials (for 3.7). you can view details in the docs mailing list archive. coordinator for this project : myself as i have contributed to the french docs, i have cloned the .po french repo for the Arabic one and modified accordingly as per recommedations for coordinators (thanking @Julien for tips) i have been contacting arab-speaking developers for involvement and announcing the project. feedbacks were positive with the likes of وشكرا لك على المبادرة الجميلة And thank you for the beautiful initiative والله يعطيكم الف عافية And may Allah/God gives you (literally) thousands of wellness however, i've found out that git is a major barrier for translations as well. many programmers for fun around, they like py, they use it, but few actually have a github account. must search further. nevertheless they are willing to translate as much as i want, i am still pondering an appropriate off-git solution, then merge by me. for the past days we have been convening on the keywords, the starting point of any translation, as, though i know Arabic, i have to cross check with native speakers as to how they really say it as there are words that are left untranslated but written in arabic as well as for similar details that said, i call to python programmers, in any language to contribute to translations, as you will by the way know the docs thoroughly. and in the case of this mail, a special call for arabic-speaking people to get involved this is a huge task (french still at 29%) but i believe that this will help programmers around the world to better access such a sleek, candy, soulful, neat and lovely language, and my way of saying thank you / contributing back to the community your fellow brother in code, Abdur-Rahmaan Janhangeer https://github.com/Abdur-rahmaanJ Mauritius -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
