+Title: Six complete translations of The Debian Administrator's Handbook for Buster
+Tags: english, debian, debian-handbook
+Date: 2021-07-05 
+
+<p>I am happy observe that the <a href="https://debian-handbook.info/">The
+Debian Administrator's Handbook</a> is available in six languages now.
+I am not sure which one of these are completely proof read, but the
+complete book is available in these languages:
+
+<ul>
+
+<li>English</li>
+<li>Norwegian Bokmål</li>
+<li>German</li>
+<li>Indonesian</li>
+<li>Brazil Portuguese</li>
+<li>Spanish</li>
+
+</ul>
+
+<p>This is the list of languages more than 70% complete, in other
+words with not too much left to do:</p>
+
+<ul>
+
+<li>Chinese (Simplified) - 90%</li>
+<li>French - 79%</li>
+<li>Italian - 79%</li>
+<li>Japanese - 77%</li>
+<li>Arabic (Morocco) - 75%</li>
+<li>Persian - 71%</li>
+
+</ul>
+
+<p>I wonder how long it will take to bring these to 100%.</p>
+
+<p>Then there is the list of languages about halfway done:</p>
+
+<ul>
+
+<li>Russian - 63%</li>
+<li>Swedish - 53%</li>
+<li>Chinese (Traditional) - 46%</li>
+<li>Catalan - 45%</li>
+
+</ul>
+
+<p>Several are on to a good start:</p>
+
+<ul>
+
+<li>Dutch - 26%</li>
+<li>Vietnamese - 25%</li>
+<li>Polish - 23%</li>
+<li>Czech - 22%</li>
+<li>Turkish - 18%</li>
+
+</ul>
+
+<p>Finally, there are the ones just getting started:</p>
+
+<ul>
+
+<li>Korean - 4%</li>
+<li>Croatian - 2%</li>
+<li>Greek - 2%</li>
+<li>Danish - 1%</li>
+<li>Romanian - 1%</li>
+
+</ul>
