I recall that "people" were requested to read the bylaws properly
before voting on the original draft... :-P
I would only make strictly *spelling and grammatical* corrections,
nothing more. Do I have an OK for that?

Hi :)
I think it is a good idea to do a spelling and grammar check although i suspect
that Florian has probably already flagged up the only 4 issues. It would be
good for a native En-Us speaker to double-check jic. Given that registration
will be done in Germany it is more important to get the German translation
reasonably perfect rather than the En-Us version.
Alfresco seem to be a great place for storing documents in a way that allows
people to reviews and create a "working notes file" so that when a particular
document/rule/guideline/policy is scheduled for review the changes could be
discussed and possibly added (if agreed).
Regards from
Tom :)
