Salut Thierry,

I can 'help' translating your document from French to English, I have very good knowledge about French but unfortunately not much about computer terms (in French of course). So I can start translating the document in general and you can later fix the parts where I mess up (if it would be easier for you than working on the whole thing alone).

Anyways, contact me if you're interested or if you need some human power =)

This course is planned to be freely available. Unfortunately, it is
currently written in french since documentation about GObject and GLib
is cruelly missing in this language. Depending on time available, I plan
to  translate it in english, but I cannot promise.

This article mainly focuses on the object model implemented by the
GObject framework and its interactions with the GType system. I try to
make it more general than another course on GUIs programming using
GNOME. I'd like to decouple as much as possible GObject and its use in
GTK+ architecture, or in GUI-based applications. Hence, the main idea is
to document in a rather comprehensive way all aspects of OO programming
using the GLib's Object System without focusing on graphical examples.
Mathieu Lacage's tutorial, available as part of GObject documentation,
is a good start in this direction.

Sincerely yours

Thierry
