Kind comments? Couldn't you hear the sarcastic way I typed that? ;-)

Well I think the conversion of the templates would be a relatively small 
task
compared to the job of translating.  (I've had hours of conversation 
with people
about how to translate VLE into spanish and I don't think we ever did 
come to
a conclusion. It's the word environment that causes the problems since the
Spanish equivalent really only refers to outdoors envirnoments, the climate,
flora and fauna etc. It's debates like this that slow things down 
because the only
proper solution is to consult people who work in this field in Spain and 
of course
that takes time.)

By the way, isn't there an automation tool for converting the templates?
