I think that people should _absolutely_ edit other people's work. Hopefully things will eventually settle on the 'best' translation. So please, read what other people have done! However, I do request that when you do so you put a comment (@c at th beginning of the line marks comments) saying why you made the change. > Changes are not recorded, right? YES! They most certainly _are_ recorded, this is the whole point of using CVS. I can revert to _any_ previous version if people give me a good reason to do so (i.e. you accidentally checked in a version with most of the text missing). -Robin -- http://www.digitalkingdom.org/~rlpowell/ BTW, I'm male, honest. le datni cu djica le nu zifre .iku'i .oi le so'e datni cu to'e te pilno je xlali -- RLP http://www.lojban.org/
