So I looked into the law and followed it to the letter: I offered to the
one French national teacher (out of 12) the possibility to give his course
in French. Of course he would not think of it. And I made sure that we had
a translation device on hand (a dictionary).
Ah ... translators ... I remember that we had quite some fun when the
translator started to make jokes (of couse only for the non french who
had headsets) ... some on this list who were present might remember the
"Sorry folks, i cannot translate this yet as i have no clue where this
gusy is heading and there is sign that he will finish his sentence in
time." Of course he got an applause afterwards.
Okay, but in general I do have good memories of meetings in France.
Especially one Gutenberg meeting in a castle: 50% talks and 50% very
good eating. And of course the famous nice 16th aniversay meeting ...
So I suggest that Arthur write the book in French and maybe I could
translate it into Dutch.
Ah, great! Because I wanted to give Slovian a try.
