Post by thread:[OT] Way OT. Need help for my book.

Dear friends I am a Brazilian engineer, now writing my first book, and in need for specific help for a particular part I am writing now. It will be, actually, just a question (kind of long, though). I ask for the kind help of a native English speaker with deep knowledge in the language. Besides, he/she must be creative, and this is why I decided to resort to this amazing list I am part of for several years now. If someone can help me, please contact me through private email: spam_OUTelectronicsTakeThisOuTglobo.com Thank you very much, Pedro Drummond

That is, if you can find it hidden between the other 50 answers :) Wouter van Ooijen -- ------------------------------------------- Van Ooijen Technische Informatica: http://www.voti.nl consultancy, development, PICmicro products docent Hogeschool van Utrecht: http://www.voti.nl/hvu

Pedro, As most of the people here are English speaking (not me), I think you will obtain much more benefit from 20 answers that from a single one. Besides, you will also have 20 points of vies of the same question/subject/issue...

Writting a book > will not get you the fortune, especialy a technical book. Writing the book in English will give Pedro a much wider audience. On the same note, if you want your code to be appreciated by more than just [insert your language here]-speaking people, write the comments in English. Most programmers speak/understand English at least at the basic level. Best regards, Vitaliy
