I presume you also noticed the progress Tobias' stats page has been
making (now http://uuhome.de/tobias.burnus/kde/doku.html). Hope you
both keep in touch on this in order to avoid duplicate work.

I wouldn't mind if it was only about a few docs. But last time I
checked Tobias' page it was so many of these HTML only docs that I
started wondering if we shouldn't mail the original authors first to
repair what they messed up themselves in the first place. I mean --
it's been clear for a pretty long time now that we need SGML here, not
HTML and some of these docs are apparently not that easy to convert,
either. Are you sure that it really is the business of translators to
repair everything what developers or other original authors messed up
in this respect?

Just thinking aloud, ;)
