There is an interesting discussion going on in the Japan OpenSolaris Community. Ken Okubo has been floating the idea of translating the OpenSolaris Bible into Japanese. The thread is getting long and it looks like there is some progress. Translating a book that is over a thousand pages long as a community project is a big deal. If you'd like to contribute, ping Ken on ug-jposug at opensolaris dot org. He's a good guy. Sign up to the JPOSUG list here.

Imagine how helpful it would be to get such a book localized into Japanese. It would be a fantastic community-building tool.
