Yes, you do. The PDF file has no information on copyright so we do not
even know if it is legal to distribute a copy in a site different from
that of the author or to translate it.
If he agrees to your translation, it would be better to publish that
translation in the author's site and we link it from Maxima's site,
unless a copyright note is added to the book, allowing us to publish a
copy in our site.
