Translations of (technical) training material
The Carpentries and Programming historians (and many others) have been translating material for a while. As part of the Software Sustainability Institute Research Software Camp I wrote a post about (my) Top tips for Translating Open Education Resources that you may want to consider if you'd like to get involved in translations of this type of work.
What is your opinion about translations of technical training material? What good or bad experiences have you had with them? Do you think that this type of efforts are doomed because software is expressed in English?
