Those are revision history comments - I could probably make them a bit
more brief.

Agreed, the PDF transformation leaves much to be desired.  The images
actually used to go right off the edge of the page until I started
reducing them all in size by 60%.  At some point I'd like to have a look
at the stylesheet to see how it could be improved/customized so it has a
neater look.  Its just a question of finding the time to do it.

That would be terrific!  One of the things I'd like to get going in the
next few months is a more organized effort on the translation front. 
All we have so far is a Spanish translation, and the i18n group has some
tools for managing doc translations that I need to have a better look
at.  I'll put your name down on my list!

Anyone else interested in translating for other languages?
