[Qgis-community-team] Training manual

[Eduardo Gonzalez]

That is a good point Kari,

Anyone can confirm that it is "safe" to start translating the Training
Manual into different languages? I assumed that since it has been
plublished in Transifex the work (and fun) can start already, am I right?

Kari, translating the forestry material into Finnish or any other language
is more than welcome! Originals will be ready *this year´s* Summer :).
