Hi,
A while back I emailed this list to say that I found
some spelling mistakes with the online docs.
Here are some of the spelling mistakes that I have
found in the June 29 2004 pdf guide from the
blender.org website.
I have emailed them in this format as I cannot rectify
the mistakes myself - hopefully someone can go through
the guide and fix them - if they are still there! :)
The page numbers that I have referenced are of the
actual pace numbers of the June 29th guide.
Thanks,
Danny
