I agree. But IMHO it's better to focus on an up-to-date documentation
instead of all the invisible cosmetics. But maybe a uniform structure
is _needed_ for a proper (structured) and easy html2xml conversion.

Yes, it is. In addition the patch is too long for a mail and I
would have to compare it manually (with an older version).

I agree. Maybe a separation between visible and invisible
changes. And a separation between spellchecks and updates would
be great too! The translation of the docs is a really hard, painfull
and boring work this way. I just returned from my holiday (2.5
weeks) and still don't know how to manage all the commits made
(too many ;).

I didn't see the commit. But I just arrived today..

For me it's ok (better :) this way (see above). Unfortunately the commits
increased and I have a freetime = lim(t->(1/0)) 1/t² (school,
other interests, own project, more). I really don't know if I
managed to keep the german docs up-to-date. They need to be
reviewed too some day (I _never_ found time). Maybe it's better
if someone starts to take over.
But I'll see what I can do...

I just hope that I won't have to retype the whole documentation
again but I suppose a html2xml command won't do the job for me...
Maybe other translators see it different, I just wanted to show
my point of view...
Best Regards and g'night
