Sudoku now appears in the Town Crier (an English language paper in Spain) and the Portugal Media (a Portuguese/French publication in France). It's just as well Sudoku doesn't rely on language - it would all get too confusing.
Pappocom's Sudoku first appeared in the Conway Daily Sun, New Hampshire in September 2004, and it has appeared in The Times (of London) since November 2004.
Don't be put off by some of the complicated-sounding posts in these forums. In some parts of the world they have gotten quite expert already. If you want help, just send in your question, and you are certain to get a friendly reply.
