Subject: Your interview with Villanueva.
Dear Sirs, editors at Linux Journal,
I am a member of the Danish and Swedish LUG "SSLUG" (http://www.sslug.dk).
Members of SSLUG are curently in the process of translating Dr. Edgar
Villanueva's response til the Microsoft letter on a voluntary basis.
We would like to be able to publish a danish translation of the
interview you had with Villanueva at Linux Journal at this URL :
http://www.linuxjournal.com/article.php?sid=6099&mode=thread&order=0
It is important that as many positive news that support free software
and open source can easily be translated to any native language in order
reach not only the english speaking population.
As an example for how importent it is to be able to translate this kind
of information to native language, is this premilary version of the
translation that SSLUG are currently doing.
This translation now is the subject of questions asked to the danish
government regarde?ng fri software and open source.
The translation is available on the webserver of the danish parlament
(Folketinget) at this URL :
http://www.folketinget.dk/Samling/20012/udvbilag/FKU/Almdel_bilag247.htm
So I am asking for permission to be given to SSLUG and/or me to publish
the translation of your interview with Villanueva on SSLUG's webserver.
As I look forward to your positive response to this request.
Yours faithfully
Hans Christian Studt
