 laubersm hangs head in shame.
I didn't do it right away and then forgot I was going to do it for others as
well as for my own work...

Currently all but three chapters are complete and ready to be translated.
Those three chapters are:
*Network Manager - the old version is pulled out completely and a whole new
chapter will be dropped in when complete.
*Office Tools - currently partly done but can be pulled entirely so that the
unit can be dropped in at once.
*Printing - a RFE that may or may not make it for F13 but if it does will
drop in once complete as an entire unit.  It also should be fairly short.

One other thing.  I do not think that UG has ever been made into an rpm
which means it only goes to the web sites.  I do not know if that makes a
difference on translation time tables/deadlines.  [long term - ie this
summer - I would like to go through the packaging procedure and get the UG
into an rpm and added to updates and ready for F14]

My work schedule just freed up some making it easier for me to get this all
done in the first part of next week.
