Re: About existing translated documents

Actually, since both of the websites use the same license, I think you can
simply copy from it. Just make sure you retain the attribution (like the
English version has).

I am not a lawyer, though.

One issue with this is maintaining a synchronized version (if at all
needed, that is). If you change it, the changes will not be synchronized to
html5rocks.com and vice versa. Perhaps it is not an issue, I do not know.
