Ciao Maurizio,
Please also take a look at this page,
http://wiki.sagemath.org/i18n/Italian
Fixing the SAGE-intro-Italian is one of the things on their todo list. So
is translating the tutorial.
Beware: there has not been much work on the Italian translation for about 6
months, and so the files listed on the page are from an old version of the
tutorial (although I don't know how much the tutorial has actually changed).
It would be better to work with the documentation that is included with the
latest version of the Sage.
After the translation, the documentation can then be included with Sage, as
it currently includes the French documentation (see
$SAGE_ROOT/devel/sage/doc/fr/tutorial).
Thanks for this!
Franco
