I didn't want to imply with my comment that you should work harder on
the translation.  You are a volunteer like all of us, so no matter how
little you do, your work is appreciated.  I just did it for fun and
because that page was in need of an update.

Yes, experience shows that translations are best split among several
people.  What happened to Andoni Zubimendi?  The man page is in a
sorry state, it's outdated and the video output drivers section is
full of duplicate entries.

Maybe it would be a good idea to ask on some Spanish forum.  Perhaps
you can draft some volunteers from there.
