Hey, This is a forwarded message from Daniel about me an official translation for the php documentation, I have already started translating the PHP arrays functions reference it going along nicely, Tough i think having it on the php.net website will be better since more people will actually be able to see read and use it. Currently all my work is held under my own website which is http://www.phpfreaks.co.il there is a references section which holds all the PHP functions which is being updated weekly. Would like to know if it's possible to join the PHP documentation mailing list and if possible to actually add my translations to the official Hebrew PHP website.

We appreciate your help in advancing the project and helping to bring PHP to people in your corner of the world, but the guidelines are in place for a reason on our end, too. An example of an exception to the two-mirror rule would be something like extremely high traffic requiring a third mirror to balance the load. However, if you're interested in translating the official documentation, why not consider becoming an official translator for the project? If you're interested, I'd recommend joining the main documentation mailing list at [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'd also speak with people like Philip Olson and Hannes Magnusson to get some help in starting the official translation. After you send a few patches, you can apply for a CVS account to commit your efforts yourself. As for being an unofficial mirror, you're more than welcome to do that at any time. -- </Daniel P.
