What is lacking at that point is to be able to create new books or translations very easily and to be able to produce a pdf (or epub book) by just clicking a button.

I guess you could ask ESUG for some sponsoring. If the french version of PBE is not finish at that time, maybe we could work on it during ESUG'10. -- Serge Stinckwich UMI UMMISCO 209 (IRD/UPMC), Hanoi, Vietnam Every DSL ends up being Smalltalk http://doesnotunderstand.org/
