If you want to help translate the web2py book into japanese, wait for the second edition (in August) and we can find an agreement.
Dear Max, Thanks for leaving a comment. I like to translate it, if there's no project for translating into Japanese. I will be waiting for the 2nd edition. I can talk to a Japanese academic publisher.
