[Qgis-community-team] Fwd: Russian translation of G.Shermans training manual

[Otto Dassau]

Dear Bettina, 

thanks a lot for your translation! I created a folder "workshops" to the
documentation area at http://download.osgeo.org/qgis/doc/ and added Gary's
english and your russian translation of the workshop at FOSS4G2007 in Victoria,
BC.

I also added a new workshop material notes to the documentation area at
qgis.org:

thanks a lot
 Otto
