RE: Dutch translation of Netbeans?

Hi all,

As Jack describes you have the web content and NetBeans itself.
I was more or less concentrating on getting NetBeans localized.
It would be great to have another person involved in either one
of them, especially to review some of the translations.

So just ask me what you need to know and I'll try to answer
as best as I can (in Dutch if you prefer, but English is fine 
too).

Koen, a kind and warm welcome from a rainy Holland ;)
