Hi
I think you are right, but if there is documentation in different
languages, anybody should
feel responsable for maintaining the documentation in one language. It
should be enough
to change it for every release and that shouldn't bee to much work.
As mentioned before i would help on german and maybe english
documentation, if there is
interest.

regards
Hans
