I would be happy to get some feedback.


I can't comment on the German version, but I looked at the English version, and
have a few comments.

At the top, you mention x1, x2, x3.  Do you mean x1, y1, z1?

Determinant doesn't have an e at the end.

There are few places where the z calculation is in a smaller font than the x and
y calculations.  I assume this is an accident.  Places I saw this: z2 and z3 for
Linetype 3; and z2, z3, and z4 for Linetype 4.

English doesn't use bottom open quotes.  I don't know what those are called, but
they are double quotes before a quote where the double quotes are at the bottom
of the text, instead of the top of the text.  For that matter, if different
characters are used for open/close quotes, the character you're currently using
for close quote would be the one to use for open quote in English.  I would
suggest just using the ASCII " character.

You might want to mention in your "is flipped" part that an odd number of YES
answers results in a flip, and an even number results in no flip.  I personally
would find this easier to remember than having to look it up in the table every
time.

Thank you very much for "only" finding errors in formatting. I have corrected
all things you have mentioned.
It was not easy for me to find all these informations and put them together. I
wonder why nobody before has released such a document to the community. You need
a lot of mathematical skills to understand all this stuff. And because I know I
forget a lot during the time I made this documentation and share it.

FYI I have used OpenOffice Writer to make that page and under some circumstances
the results are far away from what I want to do.

Again, thank you very much for your time to check the document.
