ok sorry, I only checked the translation branch manual_en_v1.8 of the
manual, because the master branch should not be used for translations, see

https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Documentation/blob/master/source/docs/documentation_guidelines/do_translations.rst

In general, if it is about the manual, we should take care, that manuals are
only translated in "translation" branches created for each qgis version,
after the english master branch is updated and tagged and includes all new
features of that version.

At the moment this is still manual_en_v1.8.
