generally, you don't have to ask for permission.

for the tutorial, though, you have to realize that the source document
is pretty much outdated. I wouldn't use it as an authoritative source
except for the first couple of chapters - the "hello world" example and
the box packing theory. everything else is hopelessly out of date, and
showcases deprecated API.

I wouldn't want you to waste time on a document that is most likely to
go away when we release gtk+ 3.0.

my personal suggestion is to write some new, introductory documentation
in Portuguese. you might take bits and pieces of the tutorial as a
starting point.

ciao,
 Emmanuele.
