Well, I think it was a decision by the people who wrote the manual to use floss manuals, I guess it would be up to them which tool they use. And in the same way, translators would choose the tools that best suit them. I think that floss manuals has already tools for translation and also think that people have worked on a translation to spanish, Maybe we should ask to those people which was their experience with the floss manuals tool set?
