I think Drew still has some things he wants to look at. I've started
learning SS using the English/ directory as a starting point. None of
the work so far is final. It's a learning exercise as well as a question
generation exercise. We're going to have to be careful moving content to
SS so that we do not duplicate content, as well as correctly integrating
into the current SS directory structure.

As I've indicated several times, there's no need to wait. I've already
started learning the SS environment, as well as exploring the mapping
issues we'll face moving to that environment. For example, you can see
on another thread that the LibreOfficeBox team are going to provide the
some files that are already on our dvd.

My suggestion is that work would be done using SS. It's designed to
handle multiple languages.

You mentioned on another thread some concerns about the use of
"English/index.html" as the entry point.  I'll go back and re-read that
email. You can always reply on this thread, but please be concise.

Cheers,
