Hi Akihiro and All,

Thank you for your efforts on helping with publishing the white paper in additional languages.

I talked to Ian and Frank last week about this topic and the conundrum on the Foundation side whether or not to do the print version for the translations as that is what slows down the process a lot due to the design work it requires.

We got to the conclusion with our team from the Foundation (cc’ed Allison, Jimmy and Wes) to do HTML-based publishing to reduce this overhead. We need to clarify now on the process and as Jeremy indicated the licensing as well.

Thanks,
Ildikó
