I´m from Turkey and being a native speaker of Turkish is not problematic for me since I'm accustomed to use English (both for computing and communication in other areas) for so many years.

However I know many young programming enthusiasts take this foreign language thing as an important obstacle. Generally I can understand what it feels like not being able to communicate fluently.

I´ve never heard about a Perl organization or a society in Turkey, nor have I met a local Perl event in Turkey´s biggest city Istanbul.

We´ve got a couple of Turkish Perl books at our bookstores but I don´t think they can match the style and quality of "Learning Perl" or "Programming Perl". It would be very nice to see their Turkish translations however people are rather interested in Java / C/C++ / VB / .NET / ASP.NET books (I know Perl can be used in .NET but you´d be surprised at the number of people who knows this fact).
