[Gpg4win-devel] English Compendium timeline?

Hi,
I'm back again to be a thorn in everyones' sides (or I suppose "in
everyone's side" if we want to use the collective construction) and ask
again what the current timeline on English translation of the
documentation. I don't much mind the Google translate version myself
(and sometimes find it quite funny), but I can't ask non-IT workers in
our organization to use that. (Besides, Google doesn't provide a clear
answer--from my perspective--as to the license questions of using that
engine to build a translated document for the project, so I am left
waiting.)

Of highest priority from my perspective would be anything not in the old
novice guide (which was translated already) in particular any discussion
of file encryption (there isn't much, and should probably be more) and
the use of the graphical front-end to establish both public and private
keys as well as to exchange public keys. 

I think that once the high priority ("What is this thing?" and "How do I
properly get it set up to work for me?") questions are answerable then
nuance can be covered. That would allow IT people that I work with to
evaluate the steps needed to more forward better.
