the images and the html files reside in the same directory.  The files
in the common folder are kde system stuff, and do not need to be
installed.  I think they might need to be in the cvs so that the html
files can be viewed in a local repository.  When installed, this is
taken care of by a link to the ~/html/en/common

If we assume that translator or adminustrator should not post the
unicode file, but parse the po to html and post only the html that will
work.

OK, I will get to this shortly.  I will set it up so that the english
can be viewed from the CVS, and will put a read me for fixing a local
copy so it will read correctly.  I will also remove stuff from the zip
file that will duplicate stuff in the uncompressed CVS files.

II Chronicles 7:14 (The Webster Bible)
If my people, who are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and
pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I
hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

Luther Bible
Und mein Volk sich demütigt, das nach meinem Namen genannt ist, daß sie
beten und mein Angesicht suchen und sich von ihren bösen Wegen bekehren
werden: so will ich vom Himmel hören und ihre Sünde vergeben und ihr
Land heilen.

Spanish Reina-Valera Bible
Si se humillare mi pueblo, sobre los cuales ni nombre es invocado, y
oraren, y buscaren mi rostro, y se convirtieren de sus malos caminos;
entonces yo oiré desde los cielos, y perdonaré sus pecados, y sanaré su
tierra.
