Marcelo Souza has started a Brazilian Portuguese edition of TheAquarium. With this addition we will have 7 editions: Brazilian Portuguese, Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, Russian and Spanish. Alexis is planning a french edition and I am going to restart the spanish edition. Please let us know if you are interested in additional editions; due to logistical reasons related to how authoring is managed at Blogs.Sun.Com we can only easily leverage help from Sun employees, but that includes Sun Campus Ambassadors.

Tuesday Marcelo will host a special webinar in portuguese to cover the GlassFish Portfolio, like we did with Chinese, Japanese and Spanish: • Tue, Mar 10th, 10:00am PT • Tue, Mar 10th, 2pm Brazil, 5pm Lisbon (Other TZ) 1-1.5 hrs, hopefully with plenty of Q&A. Details at Show Page.

Next week I will host a special webinar in spanish on Thursday to cover the GlassFish Portfolio, following the model we just used for the Chinese and Japanese editions. The time of my presentation will be: • Spanish - Eduardo, et al. - Thu, Feb 26th, 1:00pm PT / 3pm Mexico / 10pm Madrid 1-1.5 hrs, hopefully with plenty of Q&A. Details at Show Page.

The portuguese version is still being scheduled but it will very likely be the week of March 1st.

A quick report on today's Special Webinars: we decided to postpone the Portuguese version for the week of March 1st (next week is Carnival and we can't compete with it), but the Japanese and the Chinese webinars went very well. We had 144 viewers for the Japanese webinar, with a maximum of 44 attendees at a given time, while the Chinese max was 26 but the total of viewers was 153. Plenty of questions and online chatting, and we all decided we will do it again. I still need to schedule my spanish presentation... :-(

Tomorrow (Tuesday, US) we will have special webinars on the GlassFish Portfolio in Portuguese, Japanese and Chinese. The times and presenters are: • Portuguese - Marcelo & Mauricio - Tue, Feb 17th, 10:00am PT / 3pm Brazil • Japanese - Terada-san & Kohsuke - Tue, Feb 17th, 5:30pm PT / 10:30am Tokyo • Chinese - Judy & Jiandong - Tue, Feb 17th, 7:30pm PT / Wed 11:30 am Beijing 1-1.5 hrs, hopefully with plenty of Q&A. Details at Show Page.

I will also host a presentation in Spanish; should be next week but I've not yet arranged the date and time. Let us know if you are interested in other languages and we will try to find a native speaker to present.
