Hi Jaffar and All

A couple comments and suggestions:

As far as English edits,

1. To me it would make sense to translate from the final edited English.

2. I would be happy to take a look at the English. My schedule for the
next couple weeks has some kinks, so I would like to look at the text
and then propose a return date for my recommended changes.

3. Once the English edits are done, I would be happy to post to a
couple lists of blind interpreters / translators. I know people on the
lists do IT stuff. Likely over time, some teams of students needing
assignments might sign up just for practice.

Let me know on or offlist if you are interested.
