Well, but the translation often sounds odd and a bit forced. They insist in
translating words (technical terms, especially) that are better left in English
>(especially Open Source products, often badly and inconsistently translated).
don't ever mention the topic again, please. I already feel my blood boiling
at the very thought of people who spell "OK" as "Ok", or use exclamation
points (they are *informal* punctuation, dammit! have you ever read an
exclamation in a dictionary? newspaper? so why the f**k do you do that?),
or Capitalize The First Character Of Every Word (it's used in *titles* and
*expansions of acronyms*, not just anywhere you feel warm and good in your
tummy about it), or just plain can't spell and/or compose meaningful sentences

You translate documentation and send it to me. If you become a regular
contributor, trusted to know the rules and not embarass us with silly
nonsense, we can give you a permanent account to lessen the hassle. I'm
Italian too, BTW, so I can edit your translations personally
PS: do you happen to come from Turin?
