Subject: Re: [docbook] Change proposal for swedish localization



The translation depends on the context. I only use a fraction of docbook
so I'm not sure of all places where it occurs in docbook. Examples would help.

"Obs." or  "Observera" is often used to call the readers attention in swedish 
text, where "Note" would be used in english.

Observera: Samma ord översätts olika i olika sammanhang.
Notera: Samma ord översätts olika i olika sammanhang.
Not: Samma ord översätts olika i olika sammanhang.
