  1. Hi, Mr Guru.

    A ton of thanks that you recorded so many valuable videos enabling AEM fans to become even more successful.

    I'm from Adobe based in China, I was wondering why can't I record some Chinese version of your videos to expand AEM footprint in China as long as you grant the copyright. Let me know if it is possible and Happy New Year:)
