Japanese (unofficial) Django Users is launched

[everes]

Dear django-users,

We are pleased to announce the launch of Japanese (unofficial) Django
Users'
Group: django-ja and its website, http://www.djangoproject.jp/.
As the first Japanese community dedicated to Django, we will make every
effort to illustrate Django for all Japanese web perfectionists with
deadlines. Our activities include publishing/exchanging Japanese
information
on Django such as aggregators or document translations, providing an
open
mailing list -- http://groups.google.com/group/django-ja/ -- to discuss
on Django.

Visit http://www.djangoproject.jp/ for more information.

Thanks

w00t - but why unofficial?

My congratulations! Back in November 2005 I looked at Django
internalization system, when it had 11 locales. The Japanese locale was
not among them. Now Django has Japanese support and even getting
Japanese Django Users Group! Wow! You went a long way!

Thanks,

Eugene

> w00t - but why unofficial?

Because it's just not official!

I added Japanese i18n file December 2005.
Then I talked about Django at Python Japanese Users Group's Workshop in
January 2006.
And I'm going to having a panel discussion about
Python Framework(Django, TurboGears, web.py) at Ptyhon japanese Users
Group's Workshop in April 2006(hold in Microsoft Japan's office. wow!).
I think it continues with Django.

Thanx for your encouragement!

create a wiki page for django groups - add yours with all this info - and
hey presto, it will become official ;-)
