Is it possible to receive devcoins for translations into French, for example?

Not yet, primarily I think because there aren't enough people to be able to vet/edit any writings not in english. You can offer to translate from french to english, if anybody is interested in taking you up on it: http://devtome.com/doku.php?id=devtome_translators

shame!!

it there's a lot of texts in English to translate .. and very few texts in other languages!

Community devcoins be more open to the world. DVC not have much interest if it there's only English fluent spoken who can benefit.

I do not think it is difficult to find volunteers to check texts in other languages.
I volunteered for the French. Who do I contact to advance much about this?

It's still quite early days with devtome. I'm not sure what to say except that as a project started by english speakers it's going to take a while until there's enough of a trusted foreign language base to translate and check articles. As you can probably imagine people are quite hot on checking that other's aren't abusing the system with complete nonsense, effectively giving a growing foundation of accountability. Even then it's still sometimes necessary to delete/edit writings. That's just not possible in other languages until more non-english natives get involved.

You could post your interest in the main devcoin thread for when more french speakers could be involved with you in the future? Otherwise, your write ok english - certainly much better than my french - devtome's not the encyclopaedia brittanica of perfect grammatical english so perhaps you could still write and get somebody to edit a little for submission? There's a writer who translates french to english (or could be anybody) there's maybe a deal to be made there with him until more people are involved?
