Hallo Dieter,
I really appreciate your work on the German documentation and the tutorials
on your Maxima webside!
Greetings

> German readers might have followed the work on the German translation of

> Furthermore, I have put in a lot of cross references. I have an online
> version of the German manual at
> http://crategus.users.sourceforge.net/maxima.html
>
> I would like to start to put some of the work into the English manual.
> The following shows the structure of the first 13 chapters the German
> manual. Most of the material up to chapter 30 has been translated.
>
> If desired, I would like to restructure the English manual in the same
> way.
