Well, if you start discussing about FS in this area, I'll join - until Gary
says something against it...

As for the German doc, this is not "my part", as another node asked if he could
do this job. According to a netmail he sent yesterday, he is looking what has
changed in the versions and will mainly incorporate the help texts in this

That is not true: The word "Jahr" appears in this doc file. <g>
