Well, I've mentioned before that I would love to host such a
translation/interpretation in the Florilegium. 

I have been saving most of the messages posted here on this, but
since a number of them generated corrrections and comments, I'd
prefer to have a single reworked translation without the reader
having to dig through all these various sections and corrections
as a bunch of miscellaneous messages.

Yes, but I have gradually been learning this kind of stuff in
connection with the Florilegium work that I've already done and
there is no reason that a complicated, fancy version needs to
be posted on the web. I have intentionally tried to keep the
formatting in the Florilegium simple to allow easy(er) translation
between different formats (Word, HTML, text and probably others
in the future). I guess I prefer to put the time that I personally
would spend on elaborate formating in getting the information
easily available.

My standard policy is to accept updates on anything submitted
to the Florilegium, so that would allow later corrections as
new things are learned. If different people have done different
sections of the manual, I would also be willing to coordinate
putting the different sections into one collection and crediting
each author appropriately. My preferance would be to have one
person in charge of each section, at least as the final arbitrator
for that section, and let them submit to me what they think is
the best interpretation for that section.
