Yes, I understand this. I just wanted to know when I can expect to see 
changes I make to appear on people's desktop.

Continuous is ok and good, but sometimes deadlines are good too.

And no, I'm not Dutch, I'm a Finn. The Finnish version is quite ok now 
but there are still things to do, especially reviewing since some terms 
etc are difficult.

A couple of things I've noticed so far is the use of Getfeature instead 
of GetFeature (a very minor thing, but still, it is GetFeature in the 
standard), the use of a five line sentence to say something (very 
difficult to take in and digest), and both "Attributes Table" and 
"attribute table" in Glossary (shouldn't we use one term for one thing?).

Best,

Ari
