Hallo Volker,

We have the same problem in Spanish (du=t?, Sie=usted). But I prefer in
these cases to avoid personal references to the reader, and make use of
the impersonal form. For example, I'd write something like

"Man soll das Fenster oeffnen" (or something similar)

instead of "Du solls das Fenster oeffnen", or "Sie sollen das Fenster
oeffnen".

But I'm not sure that "Man ..." is common practice in these contexts.

Just an idea.
