Hi Pete

I have always offered to vet (for organization, grammar, and international English, that the translators could use. 


I offered this help several times, and never heard back.   My only alternative is to wait until it is released and then use bugzilla to point out the English faults.

I am prepared to work with an author or on any document to expedite his output and to insure good comprehension of the output.  By vetting the English before it is too late, the translators will be better able to work and Bugzilla entries can be avoided.  I have  spare time available.

Cheers and



 
Regards
