Hi my name is Matthew Buchanan Astley and I just started translating the 
Debian Administrator Handbook into Dutch, I quess this is the correct 
list to ask questions regarding the interpretation of certain bits?

for instance in:

  01_the-debian-project

"The Debian constitution also offers other guarantees for their 
stability: a three-quarters qualified majority is required to approve 
any amendment."

How is qualified to be interpreted? As in 3/4 debian developers contrary 
to 3/4 users?


Additionally I encounter the following text:

"-->The number of projects will most likely continue to grow with time 
and improved perception of the advantages of Debian sub-projects. <--

Fully supported by the existing Debian infrastructure, they can, in 
effect, focus on work with real added value, without worrying about 
remaining synchronized with Debian, since they are developed within the 
project."


What about this:

"The number of projects will most likely continue to grow with time and
hopefully this improves the visibility of the advantages of Debian 
sub-projects. Fully supported by the existing Debian infrastructure, 
users can, in effect, focus on work with real added value, without 
worrying about remaining synchronized with Debian, since development 
happens within the project"



Kind regards,
Matthew
