Heh, I did these a week ago and should have asked then, but I got sidetrack=
ed. =20
Patches for review here:
http://people.fruitsalad.org/lauri/patches/

Please ask me if you have *any* questions on any of the changes.  Some of t=
hem=20
will appear needlessly picky, but are to aid translation, such as changing=
=20
<keycap>Ctrl</keycap> -> &Ctrl; because that's already translated then.

Some are to give consistent rendering, for example, book title style=20
capitalization for headings, adding <guilabel> and <quote> instead of liter=
al=20
"..". =20

I think I removed a couple of references to "left" and "right" on the scree=
n=20
because we support bi-di languages, where left is not going to be left=20
anymore, and it helps them translating.  Up and down is safe, I don't know =
of=20
any languages which render their text bottom to top :)

There is nothing here I consider so urgent that you should break a string=20
freeze for, if there was, I should have gotten organized and fixed them=20
earlier.    If you prefer to hold them until after you've got the 1.1 relea=
se=20
out the door, that's fine with me.

Great to hear! Then I'll write as much as I can of a skeleton in the next w=
eek=20
or so.

That's entirely possible.  In fact, as soon as it hits CVS, it should becom=
e=20
available on docs.kde.org, so you could start referring users to it long=20
before it's distributed with a KDE or kdeaccessibility release. =20
