Hello Maintainers,
hello Christian,
the German translation has just been updated. While translating, we
found several potential issues, so we suggest running this template
through the SMITH procedure (I CC'ed Christian for this).
Also we had some disagrement if all file names and pathes were
correct. Could you review them once more?
Some examples for potential room for improvement:

The first sentence is quite long. The second sentence could also be
much shorter (If this is true Apache will be restarted) because the
second half repeats partial contents of the first sentence.

This is confusing: "If this is true". Possibly better: "If you agree".
And finally a suggestion which I don't know if you can do comply to
it. The sentences are repetitive. It would be much easier (and
probably less error prone) if some variables could be introduced, e.g. like

> "script that creates a configuration file for Apache to start the ASP.NET "

> " file."
