<div><br></div><div>I would make one suggestion - that instead of translating from the original Google Docs, you translate from the text on the learnOSM website.  The Google Docs are over a year old and we've made many important changes to the content since then, which is reflected on the learnOSM site but not on those docs.  I think it's fine to create your translations using Google Docs, but it would be best if you could work from the most recent material.</div>
