Excellent!  Many thanks for your offer, this is very much appreciated.
We've never had an Italian edition of the Edge AFAIK, that would be
great! :-)

There's an Edge translation guide available here :

   http://www.netbeans.org/community/contribute/localise-edge.html

(though I hope to completely replace that setup with some simple web-
based tools soon).

I'm not sure when the next issue of the Edge is due; Robert Demmer who
usually co-ordinates that is out of the office at the moment.  All 
planning and scheduling is done on this list though, so if you're 
subscribed you will see news as it is known.

Thanks again for getting in touch, I look forward to seeing our first
Italian Edge! :-)
