- Internationalization
I18N is nearly complete and ready to release. I need to test it and
work out some bugs but am happy with it so far. I will extend the
release to translators first to allow the creation of a good base of
languages.


- CSS
CSS will be used to locate everything in the OSRAIDS interface from
now on. For an example see http://csszengarden.com


- Documentation
Interested in Documentation? I am! Any one that has the spare time
should submit some small articles about operating as a consultant or a
service person to me for the website. I would also like to post
translated content for international users. Content is a major part of
documentation and I would like to offer as much content to the users
as possible.

- Me
I have been quite busy but enjoying the stress as of late. I have two
jobs at the moment and am assisting in the management of another OSS
project. http://www.mondorescue.org - enjoy

Thanks
