It may be free, but not open :P
Tried to copy text to google translate, but it seems to be protected ;
(
So it's no use for lots of people right now. You probably should have
post info about it on Malaysian cakePhp forum instead of teasing with
us :P

I can only assume you made this comment to raise some hackles. While
we're at it why don't we just abolish German (I assume that's your
first language)?
Malay is the official language in Brunei, Malaysia, Singapore and is
native to Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand. There are also significant
communities in Australia & Bahrain (source: Wikipedia).
There are plenty of tutorials in English and tutorials in other
languages are always welcome.
hi,
well, in comparison to english, its still to less people who understand that language ;)
most open source stuff is written in english, to make it available to all.
anyway, thanks for that effort, i'd like to read that ebook, but unfortunately i don't understand malay ;) i would appreciate an international version of that ebook, as there are to less free (e)books out there imho.

totally agree with andreas
posting stuff in your mother tongue in an english forum is just not
appropriate
how would you feel if everybody starts to use his mother tongue
this would be a multiculti whatever group without anybody beeing able
to read anything else
so no - write in english or post in in the corresponding Malaysian
cakePhp forum
thats my opinion
by the way:
every Malaysian developer who wants to try out cake would need to
understand English anyway
(so for the rest of the 2xx countries/languages on this planet)
maybe there already is some translation in the cookbook for you guys -
but the comments and functions are still explained in english - you
would not get very far, anyway.
on some topics its just best practice to communicate in the language
accepted as world language. at least as long as you want to
communicate with people "abroad" (and not just your neighbors or
friends)
and the cake community probably is one of those cases :)
take it as an advice for the feature ebooks - if you want to share
them with the rest of the world
i bet everybody could live with it, even those Malaysian programmers
you wanted to address

For the record: I'm gr8tful for every publication about cake
tips&tricks. In most cases 90% of it I.m familiar with, but I like to
read it because of this 10% that will be new, suprising, fresh and
useful. So "there's lots of stufff in english" doesn't convince me - I
just want to read this one too, but my Malaysian is quite bad ;)
So drop text in google translate and just check if it has
**basically** the same meaning as original text. If so - make another
(english) pdf for the benefit of the rest of ours and Your eternal
glory ;)
Those of us who don't speak Malaysian want to write here: "good work
Azril, I'll link that in my blog, that's how good this e-book is"; but
for now, we can't.

Can't you all be a little nicer towards each other? :/
Its great to have non-English tutorials around. There is not non-
English group. It would make sense to prefix your initial posting with
[lang] or [lang-LANG] - that way it won't disturb others.
I mostly disagree with euromark. One thing he mentions is very
important though: You can contribute to the cake manual right here in
the language of your choice. http://book.cakephp.org/view/527/Translations be aware that you should add to the English version what misses
completely and then translate that to your mother language as well.
how is wikipedia a source? did wikipedia do any research? any
statistics gained from wikipedia were cited from some other source.
the source is the original cited study/article/whatever.
wikipedia is great for general infomation but i can tell you that i
personally see innaccuracies, biases, and otherwise unprovable/non-
factual claims mentioned in many articles.
please take wikipedia for what it is, an aggregator of "sources",
subject to editorialization.

The post was in English about something written in Malay.

And therefore, most Malaysian speakers will look to an English forum
for answers they can't find in their mother-tongue.
This guy is simply trying to help other speakers of Malay by posting
in the lingua franca of CakePHP (and most, but not all, other
software). His post was clearly addressed to speakers of Malay. If you
are not one of them, it's not for you so keep quiet.
Sources have sources. It's a tree thing. Wikipedia was my source.
Researchers and their studies/articles/whatever are, according to your
argument, not sources as they cite information gathered from another
source. It goes on.
source: a person, book, or document that provides information or
evidence. (source: OED)
