License about translating this book #7

Open kozo2 opened 4 years ago

kozo2 commented 4 years ago

I would like to translate this repository into Japanese and publish it on GitHub. I know that the Japanese translation of this book is already sold from O'REILLY Japan, but I also would like to create a repository ( and bookdown website) that anyone can access for free. I would appreciate it if you could set License for this repository to see if that is possible.

I'm sorry. Now I found that license information is written in http://www.cookbook-r.com/ . But please let me know if the license has changed between the first edition and the second edition.

@kozo2 The license for http://www.cookbook-r.com is different. The content there is completely different, and it was written before the R Graphics Cookbook.

I will look into whether it is OK to have a separate translation, since there is already a Japanese translation by O'Reilly.
