Thanks for the translation.

I don't see any problems with you providing it, especially on your own web
site. However, could you please add a link back to the original
documentation? Something like "This is a translation of the original Cython
documentation from [doclink here]". Just in case your site gets outdated at
some point (happens...) and also to prevent readers from misinterpreting
your relation to the Cython project.

@others: should we link to this site from the Cython home page?

Thanks for doing this!

Perhaps what we could do is make a link from the main page to an
"other languages" listing (right next to the link for the English
docs?) which would be a wiki contain any and all translations,
starting with this one.
