We will constantly publish more information.
Like Werner said: Some docs and other information are in German right now.
It is our strategy to publish as early as we manage to do it, that
is why we have some parts in German published on the web already.
Just keep asking and the priority of the tanslations will rise. :)

GpgSM will be this part in the diagramm of
	http://www.gnupg.org/aegypten/tech.en.html

AFAIUI Gpgme will be the api which can be used by several programs
to control the keydatabase.=20
