Anatoly, Thank you for your email. I agree with you that Thibaut Cuvelier did not break any code. I am impressed with the translation and really pleased that my little effort to spread the word about PySide has borne some results. It is really nice to see the translation. Perhaps I should not have mentioned that it would be even nicer to be personally mentioned. Perhaps there is an acknowledgment that I missed? I only looked through the translation superficially. I sure would like to chat with Thibaut, particularly since he appears to be a Liegeois, if I am not mistaken. I spent a little more than year in Liege, though now my French is more than "rusty". I would appreciate if somebody would kindly mail me Thibaut's email address, to my email or via this list. I thought that Anatoly did write to me personally first. I did not reply fast enough because I am slow and live in a different time zone - Australia. I gather that Anatoly is in Bieloruss, in the same time zone as I would expect "rogutÄ—s sparnuotos" is. All very interesting. Season's greetings to all, Al. _______________________________________________ PySide mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pyside.org/listinfo/pyside
