7. Questions / answers

7.1 Why do you achieve those translations ?

• This is the best way I found to support the most interesting opensource projects.

• If numerous projects I want to support are achieved by Solar Designer, this is not a chance: he makes an absolutely fantastic work and regularly enable me to learn enormously things.
  I particularly want to thank him for all that.

• Solar Designer isn't the only one to make such a good work, there's Dug Song, Renaud Deraison and so many others too that I won't list all of them but I want to thank them too...

7.2 Why do you translate manuals of crackers tools...

• Those tools are what they are used to. They are cracker tools only if they are used in evil purposes.

• I think that those tools such as dsniff are wonderful educating tools : to show, per example, that it's simple to capture clear text passwords and hijacking ssh and https connections is far more efficient than theorically evoke those problems.

• Those tools hold a lot of knowledge that any administrator (network or system) and any security responsible should know... whereas all crackers master that yet since a long time...
