   Hello Martin!

   That's the exact result, with indenting.  Mind you, since the     
   original had indenting and added spacing, the proper spacing in     
   the restul was noticeable after a cut'n'paste into Notpad or     
   this wider editor space.

   Was your test with DeepL?

   Yeh, I guess the "de." part in "de.comm.software.crosspoint"     
   would be a clue.  :/  But the rest of the name is english. I     
   mean, it's not like it's "komm.software.kreuzungspunkt"  :D   
      
   Personaly, I like the idea of managing a translation discussion     
   with OXP, the product underdiscussion itself.  The built in     
   search and threading would make it easy to follow a development.   
      
   Someone posted a samples of usage of the ftsc documentation in     
   git.   https://github.com/zoomosis/ftsc   There, it looks pretty     
   straightforward to make editing changes right on the spot and     
   watch the progress.   
      
   I just learned about TortoiseSVN, since it support Windows. It     
   looks like a fine tool for managing doc changes.   
      
   But I suppose we would need a webbased versioning system, not a     
   local one for participants/editors?
