[IAEP] Another Etoys Question

[Cherry Withers]

Hi Carlos,

The manual is not completely done. It needs editing and we would appreciate
all the feedback that we can get.

If you'd like to spearhead the effort of translating it to Spanish, it will
be most appreciated! The original manual was done using FLOSS Manuals.
You can open an account for free and email them of your intent to start a
book or manual and go from there: http://en.flossmanuals.net/

Thank you for all of your support!
