Team
First of all, let me welcome Robert Wong. Robert has been quite active in our forum.
Recently, he expressed his interest in producing ebooks for us. If I remember
correctly, Dance also mentioned it before also. I will talk about the ebook project.
Welcome Robert, please read along.
For so long, PLS has been the authoritative resource for English translations.
However, due to limited manpower, they can not allocate enough time to reach to
more people. That is a great pity. PLS has done an excellent job in translations, we
should offer our help them.
Couple of things are coming up
#1. I will get the soft copy of Janny's latest translated books, Feng Sui, annotated
sutra, moment of purity, online. If not all the chapters, at least some chapters. I
already got a verbal approval. Once I get that, Cavy, our new webmaster will put it
online for us.
#2. Some of the books will be converted to ebooks, that will be Robert's job :-)
#3. PLS has tons of translated practices made by Page Maker. Someone has
converted it to text, but PLS needs someone else to convert it to pdf file. Nobody has
completed the job, PLS has been struggling for 10 years.... Robert, I hope that you
are the destined one :-) The problem is that KC's, the one in charge of PLS,
computer is affected with virus :-( It will take some time to clean it up. Once that is
up, Robert, you will be very busy. Remember, the CD that holds all the practices are
TREASURE and PRICELESS! You'd better brush up your pdf :-) Actually, you can
create a template while waiting. We will talk more on the internal forum. Talk about
good karma now :-)
Daden
Daden is the Chinese publisher for GM's books. I am also in charge of their website
and the cyber team. There has been problems with the English translations. For
example, on the Chinese book 148, "power of mantra" was translated as
"bewitchment" on the Chinese book cover.. boy... book 161, the english subtitle was
"freshly the ideas" :-( really bad English... I corrected that already. However, in the
future, I will give the opportunity to you guys. If Daden asks me to translate the next
Chinese book, I will ask the team members to do it. I hope that you will take it as a
great honor :-) Saying that, I would like to reserve next name translation to Jessie.
When I was working on the library project, Jessie took the lead in the asia book
donation. We got quite a few nice email replies. I have posted all the thank-you
letters on daden website. Jessie's contribution is admirable and inspiring! I hope that
she will elated with the new workload :-)
I did mention that I will keep low profile right? Yes, all the above said projects are
actually small projects :-) It will also take long time because of the coordination
involved. However, it is quite meaningful and worthwhile.
