Re: [jlreq] [simple-ruby] Publish the Japanese version too ? (#193)

I think hosting the Japanese version somewhere and linking to it is a good idea, letting people go back to the original source if they want to.

I am less convinced about a bilingual edition, I am concerned that it will decrease readability. If a bilingual version is made, I would strongly recommend hiding the Japanese version by default and allowing it to be revealed, rather than show everything by default and allow things to be hidden. And if we don't make the bilingual version, we side step the trouble @xfq pointed out with the title of figures.

Also, if we have an original document in Japanese, and an official English version, we don't have to maintain the Japanese version in parallel, it just stays as a historical document. If we have both in a single document, they need to be maintained equally. This feels like more work than necessary.
