Hi Jean-Philippe, I had the same idea for my german translation and asked the same question some time ago (actually one or two years ago) on this list. I got no real answer and thus concluded that there is no interest in a printed localized book. Lookling at the books licence general I would say, you can publish your translated book in any form if you like. And you're not forced to return any money for your work to LFS. But of course it would be really appreciated. The problem on your side will be to find a publisher to publish a book like LFS because it's very specialized and will have a low print run. The costs will be high because you'll probably sell not too much books. Cheers and a happy new year :) Thomas
