Thanks, but I'm afraid that I must agree with Eran. I cannot understand German.
You have a very long web page and an enormous amount of language, so it is not a
simple task. Perhaps I can copy your text then feed through an online language
translator somewhere, if I can find the time to devote to it. It would require
at least an hour of work, perhaps several hours. I don't know. Perhaps someone
who understands German will do the translation for us. Online translators seldom
get things right...
