Hi,

Good idea about testing - I should be mostly free in October.  To run
the assistant in another language, go to the command line, then in the
remote assistant directory do:

LANG=de_DE.utf8 ./remote-help-assistant

I've just fixed a minor problem with translation #16 (it had an extra
comma in it), so you might want to grab the latest version before you start.

I've just realised that my previous messages to the list haven't been
getting through, because I hadn't set Thunderbird up properly for the
list.  The only other message I've sent was about releases, so...

I'd quite like to get a new release out the door some time in the next
week or two, so what things would you like to see finished before the
next release?  I'd like to make this the last backwards-incompatible
upgrade for a while, so those sorts of changes are the most important.

How would you feel about moving the program's configuration directory
from ~/.remote_help/ to ~/.remote-help-assistant/?  I started off using
"remote_help" everywhere a name was required, but changed when I
realised that was an uglier name, and harder to understand.  I can get
the program to rename the old directory if it finds one, but that will
cause problems if you want to go back to an older version of the program
later on.

Sebastian - I plan to work on the improved text interface after this
release is finished.  If I don't hear from you again after the weekend,
do you mind if I make a release while you're away?
