Cherry,

interesting you mention the manual.

What is the status of the manual?

At one point I had volunteered to translate it into Spanish.

Then there were other volunteers,  then there was some other book that was better to have in Spanish and then no more talk.

My offer is still on.

Is there anything you think I could start translating about Etoys?
