These are only the changed docs from my commit filters, maybe there are some 
more in other modules. I left out everything with only ebn and markup fixes 
and no changes in content, please don not backport such documentations. 
It is only work for the translators, but mostly unvisible for users.

I missed some docs of control center modules:
windowmanagement
see http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-doc-english&m=116470349523873&w=2
path
thinkpad
kvaio
I'm working on this stuff.

I checked the helpcenter and found some additional missing docs:
Games->knetwalk
Graphics->kfaxview
Information->view1394
Settings Modules->Internet & Network->Bluetooth Services
Utilities->Accessibility->KSayIt
Utilities->File->KHexEdit has to be changed to section Editors
Utilities->File->KPalmDOC
Control Center Modules->Display->kcmdisplay
Control Center Modules->User Accounts->userinfo

kio-slaves, see http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-doc-english&m=116886505723784&w=2.
I have written docs for ar, zip, and started with audiocd, but not yet 
commited someting.
Execute "kcmshell ioslaveinfo" in konsole and check all entries in the list 
for missing docs, you wil find a lot of them :-(

An other important job is to sync docs in branch and stable (missing forward 
or backword ports):
I have already done this in the last doc freeze lifts for AFAIR access, 
addons, admin, edu (except kalzium, where it is desperately needed!), games 
and graphics.

Has to be done for all other modules too.

There is a mail from Nicolas Goutte 
(http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-i18n-doc&m=113951101721162&w=2) with a list for 
some modules.

Yes, as I work mainly as translator. I'm only here because I don't like to 
translate outdated or wrong docs ;-)

Please no backports with no new or unchanged content!

Create a diff between the docmessage template in stable and trunk and upload 
to somewhere on docs.kde.org would help translators, which have only a 
checkout of stable, to see the changes in the messages.
