+ <div class="body"><p>As I wrap up the Norwegian version of
+<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig">Free
+Culture</a> book by Lawrence Lessig (still waiting for my final proof
+reading copy to arrive in the mail), my great
+<a href="http://dblatex.sourceforge.net/">dblatex</a> helper and
+developer of the dblatex docbook processor, Benoît Guillon, decided a
+to try to create a French version of the book. He started with the
+French translation available from the
+<a href="https://fr.wikisource.org/wiki/Culture_Libre">Wikilivres wiki
+pages</a>, and wrote a program to convert it into a PO file, allowing
+the translation to be integrated into the po4a based framework I use
+to create the Norwegian translation the the English edition. We meet
+on the <a href="irc://irc.freenode.net/%23dblatex">#dblatex IRC
+channel</a> to discuss the work. If you want to help create a French
+edition, check out
+<a href="https://github.com/marsgui/free-culture-lessig">his git
+repository</a> and join us on IRC. If the French edition look good,
+we might publish it as a paper book on lulu.com. A French version of
+the drawings and the cover need to be provided for this to happen.</p>

- <div class="body"><p>Last oktober I was involved on behalf of
-<a href="http://www.nuug.no/">NUUG</a> with recording the talks at
-<a href="http://www.makercon.no/">MakerCon Nordic</a>, a conference for
-the Maker movement. Since then it has been the plan to publish the
-recordings on <a href="http://www.frikanalen.no/">Frikanalen</a>, which
-finally happened the last few days. A few talks are missing because
-the speakers asked the organizers to not publish them, but most of the
-talks are available. The talks are being broadcasted on RiksTV
-channel 50 and using multicast on Uninett, as well as being available
-from the Frikanalen web site. The unedited recordings are
-<a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/MakerConNordic/">available on
-Youtube too</a>.</p>
-
-<p>This is the list of talks available at the moment. Visit the
-<a href="http://beta.frikanalen.no/video/?q=makercon">Frikanalen video
-pages</a> to view them.</p>

-<p>Part of the reason this took so long was that the scripts NUUG had
-to prepare a recording for publication were five years old and no
-longer worked with the current video processing tools (command line
-argument changes). In addition, we needed better audio normalization,
-which sent me on a detour to
-<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Measuring_and_adjusting_the_loudness_of_a_TV_channel_using_bs1770gain.html">package
-bs1770gain for Debian</a>. Now this is in place and it became a lot
-easier to publish NUUG videos on Frikanalen.</p>
