Any problem.

I suggests you also to split the nautilus users guide into 2 separate
things, the guide itself and the services guide, and have in Nautilus
a menu item like "about eazel services" or whatever. Perhaps this item
can hide if nautilus is not configured with
--enable-eazel-services. 

    Dan> Chris - could you comment out / remove the section of the

    Dan> User's Guide -> Nautilus User Manual -> Eazel Services

I suppose that 'Chris' is Chris Lyttle, so I'm going to remove the
eazel stuff just from the italian translation of the UG.
