Hi Simion,

No offence taken and I certainly hope I haven't messed anything up too
badly for any translators--that is certainly not the intention. I will
look into what exactly needs to be done to get the translations updated
properly to match.

In editing terms this should affect only people using emacs to edit
the docs, and the line in question was already non-functional in a
large number of files. I will, I believe, need to update the En-Revision
tags to complete the change for SVN, as you said.

However, upon reflection I likely should have awaited more comments
before such a sweeping change.

I will look into the options (reverting; updating the translations,
etc) before continuing. If anybody has any other suggestions, I am all
ears. 


Regards, and thanks for the heads-up,

Torben
