I see. I will let it be for a while.

The coverage is slowly increasing for sv-da. I've prepared some larger
additions but that will introduce some new inconsistencies until I'm
through. Thus it would interfere with making the pair sv-da release
ready for BSD etc.

Besides, right now I will either have to comment out some offending
entries and continue after the release. Or  fix the half ready entries,
but I haven't much time right now. I might fix at least some of them. If
you put up a deadline I can make a plan.

Yours,
Per Tunedal
