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

This is not a translation of the preface of the German \KOMAScript{} guide,
because this translation of the German \KOMAScript{} guide is still a work in
progress. Currently the chapters of \autoref{part:forAuthors} and
\autoref{cha:scrbase}, \autoref{cha:scrlfile}, \autoref{cha:scrhack},
\autoref{cha:scrlayer}, \autoref{cha:scrlayer-scrpage-experts},
\autoref{cha:typearea-experts}, \autoref{cha:maincls-experts},
\autoref{cha:scrlttr2-experts} are up-to-date.

Nevertheless, for \autoref{cha:scrlayer}, \autoref{cha:scrlayer-scrpage},
\autoref{cha:scrlayer-scrpage-experts} a native speaker or someone with
advanced knowledge of the English language would be needed to improve it.
% AFAIK currently there are not any dead links or broken references, otherwise
% I would use the following:
% There may still be dead links and broken references in these chapters,
% because the referenced information in chapters of other parts could be
% missing.

The descriptions in \autoref{cha:scrwfile}, \autoref{cha:tocbasic},
\autoref{cha:scrlayer-notecolumn} are not translations from the German manual
but are primary descriptions from the implementation of these packages. They
should be up-to-date\,---\,sometimes even more than the chapters from the
German manual.

So this English guide is complete but nevertheless not as good as the German
one, because my English is not as good as my German. Currently there's only
one editor for the English guide, Krickette Murabayashi, who improves my
translation for free. Many thanks to her for her very good job! Nevertheless,
additional editors or translators would be welcome!
