Hi Fabi,

you are coming from Ticino? Very nice region, have been there some 
times! :-)

Important: I did not want to change the sense of the original file. 
Personally I think even bugs should be persistant between different 
translations. ;-) Otherwise they would drift away from each other too 
much (my opinion). On the other hand, I had to change some sections 
slightly, as they would not make too much sense in german, could be 
miss-interpreted or simply would sound ugly if translated very close to 
the original. I don't know how the other translators handle this issue.

And I promise to update often... ;-)

Perhaps I have added a few too much "bitte" to the translation, but 
since some decades german people try to be nice instead of ugly 
barbarian Krauts... ;-)

See Shachar's mail. I agree to his view.

"wine [Optionen] Programm". I will change it in the update.

"Des Weiteren" according to dict.leo.org.
BTW: I prefer it much above "ausserdem"... :-)

I don't think this is very common in countries that really _speak_ 
german instead of just writing it... *hint* B-)

I will change it when the original changes.

See above. But I thought the same when I translated it.

Thank you for the compliments! :-) I have to admit that German was my 
primary school subject and gave me the max score of 15 points in 
"Abitur" exam.
Did I mention that I could read german perfectly before joining school? 
;-) Sooorryy for blatancy, too much alcohol on my birthday...

Regards and thank you very much for your detailed inspection!
