Oh, well thanks for your kind words :-)

It could be both an announcement and a call for more help. At least the translation part, I wonder if we could use more help?

As I and I think others have said, this would be a great gateway project for bringing in new talent and having more active users.

Although perhaps there's some reason that I don't see, not to bring in beginners to the development side, on this particular project?

Thanks,
brynn

I'd say let's wait and do a progress report, so we can say that we're
making progress on it, rather than just that we've decided to do it. I
plan on helping this area of the project much more after I handle the
hackfest swag. It would be better to have a more or less complete
manual before we announce it to the public, unless it's a call for
help with it.

If it's a call for help with that area of the project, then go ahead, though. :)

Thanks for the amazing amount of work you're doing for the project,
brynn. It's definitely helping drive my own motivation for Inkscape
project work. :)

Hi Friends,
       As I'm writing up a quick draft to announce the upcoming hackfest, I
suddenly wondered if it might be a good idea to write a short item about the
recent new work on the new manual?

       I could do that, after I finish the hackfest article.  I'm thinking
Maren might be able to get all the details correct, the first time around?
Although I don't mean to volunteer her.  As I said, I could do it myself, if
we decide to do it.

       I think it would help in community-building, to keep the wider
community up to date about these things.  What do other manual workers and
Docs list subscribers think?

All best,
brynn
