ok, great !

What you can do is to choose a chapter which has not been translated yet 
and translate it.

Chapters are here: http://ddili.org/ders/d.en/

Untranslated chapters begin from Variable "Number of Parameters". I have 
to finish the struct chapter.

You can use a word processor to write the translated version (better use 
free format like ODT) and I will translate it back to whata, the format 
I use to write the translation, or, if you feel you can write directly 
in Whata, following exactly the format I use in the repository, it is 
even better. Or you can use DDoc or markdown and I'll translate it into 
whata.

In the cases of Whata, Markdown and DDoc, I suggest you clone Ali's 
repository :

https://bitbucket.org/acehreli/ddili
folder src/ders/d.en.

copy/paste the file corresponding to the chapter you are translating and 
progressively replace english sentences by French sentences.

It would be great if you included the revision number or the date 
somewhere as a comment or a variable in your document, so we can keep 
track of the changes.

When you are done, just send me your file, with your name so I can 
include it in the list of contributors.

In any case I'll proofread, fix (asking you if it is an important 
modification), translate into whata if not already written in whata and 
send in the repository, adding you to the list of authors of the document.

To begin the translation of a chapter, I suggest you tell it here so two 
people are not translating the same chapter at the same time.

If you prefer proofreading, just proofread the html version here: 
http://dlang-fr.org/cours/programmer-en-d/ and send me an email for each 
error. You can use the tag [relecture] in the  subject of the mail to 
ease my task, but I can live without. When you proofread a chapter, tel 
me so I can keep track of the chapters which has been proofread and who 
did it.

I think I'll include all this data directly in the repo and in the html 
version of the book.

Note on the translation:

- Instead of "ci-dessus" or "ci-dessous", I used "ci-avant" and 
"ci-après" across the whole translation.
  - I translated slice into tranche. This is arguable, we can discuss 
about it.
- I tried hard not to use English words. If I did, I put them in italic 
and I always explain what it means in French.

Cheers,
Raphaël.
