\addchap{Preface to the English \KOMAScript{} Guide}

The translation of the German \KOMAScript{} guide is still a work in progress
and a never ending story. I always try to have an English user guide with all
descriptions of the German one. But as long as I have to do the primary
translation, these translations not only can but should be improved.

Currently, whole \autoref{cha:tocbasic} is not a translation from the German
manual but the primary description from the implementation of the
package. Nevertheless, a native or very advanced English speaker with basic
TeX knowledge is urgently needed to translate the German text or to improve my
own translation.

A real gap is the chapter about \Package{scrjura}. Currently there isn't such
a chapter, neither in the German nor in the English manual. But there is a
chapter at the German \KOMAScript{} book. If someone would translate it, I
would add this chapter and the translation to the manuals.

So this English guide is complete but nevertheless not as good as the German
one. Currently there are only a few editors for the English guide, who improve
my translation for free. Many thanks to them for their very good job!
Nevertheless, additional editors or translators would be welcome!
