I haven't read any of the other pre-release documentation, but it looks like the german translation could use another volunteer. I have nothing to do with the translations, so I'll let somebody else cover that. The important thing in my mind is to finish the English docs. It's no use translating something that'll be completely rewritten in two months. I think it's better in the long run for any translators to completely drop their translation efforts, spend a month carefully proofreading the English docs, and then resume translationing when we have a really good, stable set of docs to work from.

I will use it instead. 1.3.1, Dynamics, Hiding the extender line for text dynamics Perhaps the first sentence here Text style dynamic changes (such as cresc. and dim.) are printed with a dashed line showing their extent. should be moved up the page to the point where \crescTextCresc etc are first introduced, and that example could be slightly tweaked so that the extender line is more apparent. (At the moment the default behaviour isn't really shown before it's altered.) I will definitely move the sentence, but this example is revealing a problem with the extender line itself. The behavior of the extender line has changed since 2.10 (IMO, for the worse), so I'll report this as a bug. 1.3.1, New dynamic marks The first example on this page unfortunately cuts off the top of the 'f'.

Yes, I know, just thought that in this case, since the new dynamic
mark is the point of the example, it might be worth changing the
example to work around the bug. e.g.:
\relative c' {
d e4 d e2_\moltoF
d e4
}

Oh, I see. Good idea! I will change it.
