Dear Steve

I just gave a look to the new version!
I'll still need some time to get used to it, but it seems great!

In your mail you say we could translate the screen....

how should I do that... what do you need me to do....

shoud I print a page and send you all the names in french... then you  
could add it  and make the changes?
do you need smybols in french sign language too to put in the icons ???

let me know what you need and I'll do it.

it's going to be a great help for the persons who don't read english!!

another question I used to be an editor of the swiss french  
dictionnary... am I automatically an editor in the Puddle 1.5 too? or  
do I need to do somthing special to become editor ?

looking forward to hearing from you!
