Yes, I appreciate your work. :) However, proofreading should not be 
done by yourself. This should be done by another person. 

From my experience with writing documentation, never underestimate a 
good proofreader (thanks Rebecca!). A person how is not emotionally 
connected with a text can see things that you can not see. For 
example, after I wrote some text I give my text to my collegues for 
feedback. I can not proofread my own text, it's like a "blind spot".

Right, I agree. Don't worry. :)

This is the reason why I asked if we should start something like 
a "proofreading" or feedback round. I think this would improve the 
overall quality.


Bye,
