[OpenSpending] The OpenSpending guide now available in Spanish: more to languages to follow!

[Anders Pedersen]

All,

I wanted to give a quick update on the translation sprint of the
OpenSpending guide<https://trello.com/c/abfAVgBC/14-openspending-guide-translation-sprint-august-9th-to-august-23rd>
that
we set out for a week ago.

This weekend Ana reached a near completion of the *Spanish version of the
guide*<https://docs.google.com/a/okfn.org/document/d/1sl9Fvtbp5y-XDnY6cosZb5CJQw-oAD_zs1kVqBovk14/edit?usp=drive_web>.
A
big congratulations on this achievement! You can still help out polishing
the Spanish version by translating the image texts - simply add your self
to this ticket on
Trello<https://trello.com/c/CPA3l7PV/58-images-pictures-of-the-spanish-text-need-to-be-translated>
.

We are also excited about the signups to translate the OpenSpending guide
into Nepali, Romanian, Finnish and Hebrew: thanks to Prakash, Victoria,
Henri and Mor from the community. You can still lend a hand to these
amazing translators or add your own language by joining the translation
sprint Trello ticket<https://trello.com/c/abfAVgBC/14-openspending-guide-translation-sprint-august-9th-to-august-23rd>.
