The first article evolt.org published in a non-English language was this 
one, November 27, 2001.

Judging from the comments, our choice to publish it (without an English 
translation) sparked some controversy in the community.

The integrity of the German characters was lost, however, somewhere in 
the conversions we've been through. I've just tried to go back through 
and replace the "gremlins" with proper characters.  My German, however, 
is rusty, to say the least, and there were some words I guessed at, and 
others I left because I didn't want to hazard a guess.

Could someone who speaks German look through the article and see if 
there are any spelling errors and/or if you can let me know the proper 
characters for the letters I did not replace?

The second article we published in a non-English language was this week 
(seven years later!), a Dutch translation of "10 Lies Clients Tell" 
written by Vedran Jukic and translated into Dutch by Marcel Feenstra, an 
evolt.org editor.
