   Huh?  The translation hasn't even started (except for the first     
   para in section I)   
      
    AA>> What minimum # of people do you envision should participate in the

   OK!  But you said there had to be more people involved.  Now you     
   say only two - how  'bout you and I?  :D

   I think it would be much easier to monitor translations if the     
   project proceeded subsectio by subsection.  The whole 150K char     
   document would be a nightmare to monitor progress.  The editing     
   work and approval amongst the team would be easier from to     
   bottom in an orderly sequence.

   I watched a few tortoisesvn YT videos.  Most of them were     
   terrible - the host moving the mouse all over the place and NOT     
   explaining WHY and WHERE he was moving the mouse.  Literally it     
   was "go here, then here, to get that, oops..  I mean here, and     
   then this.."  ARGHHHH!   
      
   To get started I would need to get an earlier version of     
   tortoisesvn that supports XP.   
      
   The only other thing I don't understand and is HOW and WHERE is     
   the "repository" hosted so that the files are availble to other     
   editors interested in the project?
