I believe Ismael is looking for version on which Spanish translation
was actually based on (to use with xml2po I suppose).  Using "cvs co
-D 'year-month-day' gnome-user-docs/gnome2-user-guide/C" *might* help,
if one knows the date Spanish translation was branched off.

It would be best if Ismael could really track "mlei" down, but I
believe this documentation came from Sun Doc team.  Perhaps it really
is the best to make use of date in the translation.
