Quick and easy typo fix?

Hi all!

I would love to help out by fixing typos in the gimp documentation, but I pay for bandwidth, so I don't want to check out the whole of the documentation tree from SVN to be able to fix a simple typo in the English docs. What is the quickest, easiest, lowest bandwidth way of fixing small mistakes?

Posting those typos here in list (best with a patch).

Great! :-)

I know that problem...

It's possible to checkout the documentation partially, e.g.

svn checkout http://svn.gnome.org/svn/gimp-help-2/trunk/src/menus \ gimp-help-2/trunk/src/menus

Bye, Ulf

If I won't download the latest version of the docbook file, will patches be any use?

Sorry I missed the point. Perhaps downloading the pdf snapshots...they are updated not too frequently but it should be enought... btw I think that putting on the site the pdf building timestamp could help in avoiding the double correction reports.
