Joe Stagner from Microsoft wrote a post in which he calls people to volunteer for translating Scott Guthrie's Blog posts originally written in English to Portuguese. I immediately contacted Joe emphasizing that I would like to help. Since then I've translated three posts and I really expect to translate many more.
You can access the new blog created especially for the Portuguese community at http://weblogs.asp.net/scottguportuguese
Other great news for the Brazilian community is that the Developer Division, more precisely the Community Localization Team from Microsoft has released the Brazilian Localization of Visual Studio 2008 and .NET FX 3.5. More details can be found on this post at Somasegar's WebLog.
Again, I volunteered to participate in these community localization projects assisting with translating into my native language: Portuguese.
I think it's a good idea to participate in such projects. You can learn a lot more. As Joe stated in the title of his post "Do you translate ScottGu's blog in your head?"; my answer is YES, I do. I always do that. Besides, it's worth it to help others that still don't know the English language.
