Correct me wherever there's a mistake or error.

Besides, with our next milestone release about to be out soon, i'm just
thinking of a couple of (trivial?) things:

1) A layout should be defined so that all of our files follow it
exactly. [Esp. the start of the file, ie. what should the first line be
like(translate it or remain it as is), how the translator info should be
displayed].  I find the layouts of our translated files differ from each
other.

2) What ESR has said about OSS: Release early; Release often. Our
project seemed to have been almost dead for days, if not months.
Well, here i SHOULD be critisized for my laziness. :-(

And of course, we should tune and improve our file's content itself in
the following (possible) releaseS. I mean the quality.  [Bug fixes]

As to whether go on translating the ref part, i for one, at present, put
this question to the second place. I WILL translate the ref part as we
do the user part(i mean the willingness, NOT the slowness). But now the
most important thing is to RELEASE the user manual.

And the last but not the least, lang2, our project manager and editor
in chief, you deserve our big thank-you.  Thanks, lang2, for your great
work.  :-)

Cant wait to see our user manual released.  :^)

Thanks & Regards,

Yes. We will have to agree on that. But it shouldn't be hard.

Agree. We definitely loose out on that. My apologize. But we will be 
delivering quite often in the near future.  I will finish 40.txt tonight
and
hopefully in two days we can have one.

Yes. I will review all the translated document after the release, making 
sure they are correct and consistent with each other. This is _very_ 
important.

The original plan was to translate all the document. And it is still as 
tempting for me as we started the project. However, the amount of work
required is daunting. Unless we have more help from the outside, I am 
beginning to fear. We will see what happens after the releases.

Actually, in the recent weeks, I got quite a few (3-4) volunteers who
is interested in picking up some work. But they all misterically
disapeared
after my reply. :(

Absolutely.
