Spanish xFamily site launched!
xFamily has recently launched a Spanish site. It is currently very much in its infancy, but check it out at [size=117]http://es.xfamily.org[/size]

We're in great need of people who can translate xFamily articles into Spanish, and people who are interested in becoming wiki editors for the new site. (The process for becoming an editor is similar to that on the English side ... see: xFamily.org: Contributing Information.)

Here are some Spanish sources for additional information on The Family, much of which can probably be used as references when building the Spanish xFamily site.

- Hamelin
- SOS - Ayuda a personas afectadas por sectas destructivas
- Translation of a No Longer Children newsletter
- es.catholic.net search: Los niños de Dios
- LaFamilia.org - Official Family website in Spanish

Please note that we are also interested in having xFamily in any other language for which we can get accurate translations. If anyone speaks any other language and has a bit of time, we are interested in starting wikis for any language possible. Thanks!

I believe that unless you can obtain actual copies of the Spanish publications translations of the CoG lit will be different from the official publications. I have done translations myself and know that you can have two different versions of the same text, and both be accurate.

I can help with Spanish into English, however you will need native speakers to translate from English into Spanish.

If you cannot find Official versions of the Mo Letters, but can get them translated, you will have to state that this is not an official translation.

Those tips are certainly important to follow, but worry not as we're quite aware of them. Wink

The Spanish to English translation offer is helpful..... Peter Frouman has compiled a fair amount of good content that is currently only available in Spanish. Things like English transcripts of the Spanish televison coverage (which we could then possibly add as subtitles) would be great, but anythng that you might take a personal interest in helping towards translating would be very cool.

I don't speak a word of Spanish, so when you have some time and you want to coordinate these things you should probably get in touch with Peter, or possibly Thorwald.

I know someone in Argentina who has the whole library in Spanish. If you run into a snag and need something, let me know. I can write them and have them mail me a copy.
