This is my fault as I am the guide owner. I did make changes to the
guide and branched it for F15, but at release time I was unavailable
and never actually published the guide. I will try and make that
happen over the next few days. I am sorry for the confusion, and don't
want translators to fell as if they wasted their time for this or any
other guides.
