I'd say we're trying to produce a full set of guides for 4.0, but realistically some may end up being for v4.1. Yes, JohnS and PeterS have been doing an awesome job of updating the GS guide. --Jean On Sun, Feb 10, 2013 at 12:18 PM, Tom Davies wrote: > > Is the Docs Team trying to produce a full

A proposed variation of the Math Guide (and GS with Math chapter) based on the French docs are on the wiki and will be considered for v 4.0. I've mentioned it to John Smith, who is working on the GS with Math chapter. Some changes from the German version were included awhile ago (v 3.5, I think).
