Adding Asian language support is on my TODO list and should appear in 1.5.0.

Needless to say, the manual is hopelessly outdated. I won't be able to work on Granule until early November, but with 1.5.0 release the manual will be brought up to date.
A lot of questions have been asked and answered in this forum or in the bugs forum already. But it would be nice to have up-to-date manual as well as some decent webcasts.

Q1: You are correct, that feature has been removed. Section "3.1.4. To Add A Deck To The CardBox" states it otherwise. Thanks for pointing it out to me.
Q2: The "Back" answer is a multiple line text field. You can have multiple answers to a question and you can test yourself by matching your answer with alternative answers found on line 2 and so on. If you set it to 0...

ASF stands for "alternative sound front" and ASB stands for "alternative sound back". They are not visible elements and only used by granule to calculate the alternative file path to the sound bite. If you are learning the words, you would not likely use this feature.
It is used primarily to annotate slide show as in Question/Answer session. A good example is Dedalus-01...

1.3.0 is not maintained any more. But, to resize, start granule, open File > Preferences > Geometry.
Change CardView geometry. Click [Apply], and exit the application (File > Quit. Start granule again, and you should get the window of the right side. This is annoying bug that will be fixed in 1.5.x.

I don't think we have ever had a Ubuntu maintainer for Granule. I will try to install 9.04 myself over the weekend and investigate the problem further.

The cards in the cardbox are arranged and grouped together by their respective expiration date. A collection of N cards thus is a sequence of subsets S(1), S(2), S(3) ... . The shuffle operation only shuffles cards in the subsets. It does not rearrange the expiration time of the cards. For a low number of cards in the cardbox, shuffle, as you have rightly noted, has no effect as each card would...

Yes, this is a bug because you did not fill up the back field of the card. Instead, you put your traslation into the 'Example' field leaving the "Back" field empty. When the text is entered in the asnwer field for comparison, and 'Check' button is clicked, an empty "Back" text is compared with the answer and that triggers the bug.
This will be fixed in the next release. Meanwhile, I strongly...

Granule uses Pango markup to render text fields (just like HTML).
Since all text is XML, you need to quote special markup characters:
& becomes &
< becomes <
> becomes >
Your phonetic spelling should have been written as:
/l@U f&t/
I will investigate pango_markup (markup_escape_text()) for the next release.
