Translated Versions of The Evening Sky Map:
It was great to provide a set of translated editions of The Evening Sky Map in 2009 -- The International Year of Astronomy -- and throughout 2010.
The translation team (listed below) did an excellent job to enable this service to the international Astronomy community. Unfortunately, Skymaps.com is unable
to support the translations in 2011 due to a range of other committments. However, we do hope to return the service sometime in 2012.

• French: Jean-Luc Dighaye (Europe) & Stephane Dumas (Québec City, Canada)
• Portuguese (Brazil): Gilberto Parreira (João Monlevade, Brazil)
