Japanese Django Book
Just found out that one of the developers of Monologista SA (stand alone) and Monologista GAE has written a book on Django in Japanese. A full 520 pages based on the trunk version and not 0.96. Very cool.
The book is a collaborative effort of four folks, including Masuda-san who lead the translation of django documentation into Japanese at Django-JP. Another one is from a blog I’ve been reading for a while, largely due to this post. I recognize the last name but can’t say I know much about him.
The book is not on sale quite yet, but will be available any day now. Of course, if you don’t read Japanese it may not be very helpful. ^_^; I think I’d like to get one. Wonder if my credit card in Japan is still active…..
As we were talking about it, voluntas mentioned that he had finished coding version 2 of Monologista GAE. They are working on some design changes before they update the live version. He also mentioned that he’s writing up deployment/installation documentation and I agreed to translate it into English for him. Actually, I was one of the first translators of Plone into Japanese way back when.

Hi,
I’m trying to fin some contat information to you but there is no e-mail on site. I’ve got a few questions about monologista. I’ve trayed to translate the information on http://trac.monologista.jp/ using google translate but I that was no very good to really understood. Mainly I want to know how to install monologista using django because that is my first time with that framework. I realized that you know many things about django and you write in English so write to you. I will be very happy to here something from you.

Hi ddluk,
Sorry, haven’t gotten around to adding a contact form yet. I will soon though.
You can email me at rbh AT neohawk.info if you like. I actually started writing some stuff on installing monologista but never finished it.
It’s basically a standalone django app. In other words, it’s not designed really to fit in another django project. Though of course, you can do that too if you are careful, or you can add other apps to the monologista project.
What specifically are you having a problem with?
