Hi, sorry - just a lack of time and an uncertainty how to reply.

Creating the directory is no more than 60 seconds work, so don't worry about 
that.
We can create it once there is the beginning of a translation ready to 
commit.

I have some questions about the state of the project:

Currently, Dmitriy Popkov (cc-ed) has commit access for Russian book 
translation - is he still part of the team? What is the current membership 
of the team?

Is there existing translated text, or are you starting from scratch?


Thanks,

Max.
