Hello everybody ! I'm a mozillian of Brazil and yesterday I began to translate the book of rust. I also created the RoR project ( Rust On the Rocks ) http://rustontherocks.org , so if there is any advice or other rustocean of Brazil that can help me improve these projects would be nice :))
I organized a 'mozilla club' here in my university which calls RustCave and last week I organized a mozcoffe in RustCave specifically to introduce the rust programing language, the time lapse of mozcoffe can be founde here: RustCave MozCoffee 2015 - YouTube (temprary version )
Rust Brazil by molokdotc - Mozilla-BR o/// go go go go
Thank you !
Please sorry for my poor english.
I speak some basic Portuguese. I might be able to help with translation, but it would be nice if some of the more technical words were already translated for me . Maybe a small dictionary for English -> Portuguese technical words that are very common throughout the Rust book.
Wow, this sounds like a great effort! We've been lacking in community organization in South America. I love your RoR logo. When you organize events make sure they get added to the calendar, so they get publicized on TWiR.
I created a club called mozilla RustCave , and last week I prepared a lecture for some of my university friends i spoke about Rust, RoR and mozilla's projects.

Indeed, I am (I prefer to use just English here, you know).
What I mean is that most of the terms that are used in English, aren't used in Portuguese (because there's no a good translating meaning the same thing). So, when we translate these kind of things, we keep the term in English. It happens just with terms, like: "minimal runtime". How could you translate this?
Anyway, I think my e-mail is on my profile. If you want some contact, go ahead.
I'm very busy at the moment, but if someone wants to talk about Rust please join #rust -br channel irc.mozilla.org
ps * User "target " in the channel is my bot
I'm a brazilian rustacean as well, when I get some time (famous last words), I'm planning to give a Rust mini-course at Unicamp. If anyone makes a presentation in portuguese, do share! Translating the book and keeping it updated is quite an effort, I think it will be more worthwhile after we get more traction in Brazil, at the beggining we just have to assume people are confortable reading english and focus on increasing awareness of the language, with talks, presentations, blog posts.
IRC is not a very good communication channel right now because the volume is very low, a forum, mailing list or blog would be more appropiate. Rust on the rocks is a good place to focus the efforts, it ranks well in search engines. However it's kind of a mess right now and not very up-to-date, it needs to be more open and have better instructions for contributors.
I'm Brazilian too. I agree that the translation is quite a effort but I think that it getting started now will lead us to a more proper way of doing it in the future and in some sort avoid repetition on the way.
Hi! I'm from Brazil, Sao Paulo. I was talking to some friends and we wanted to share some content about it and improve our knowledge. We had the idea of creating a meetup group - http://www.meetup.com/Rust-Sao-Paulo-Meetup/ and I plan to have a first meetup by the end of October in Sao Paulo city. Do you think that it would be a good idea?
Thanks!
