Email me off the list at  "webmaster@krackedpress.com" and we can "talk" 
some more
about this.  Thanks.

There is a need or an English, and/or a multi-language ISO file that has 
the software in
the languages used and the add on extensions, documentation, and 
templates in those
different languages.  I mainly deal with an all English version, but the 
"official" site could
have an ISO to be downloaded that has the top 5 or 10 languages and 
their versions of the
documents and such included.  That would be a good way to market the 
product.  You
never know who could use one.  I did once for a friend that was born in 
a non-English
speaking country and still did a lot of non-English work in a word 
processor.
