Hi Dim,

OOPS!  That second file is inexplicably referenced in the legalnotice
file.  I think we need to change the way our build tools grab these
files, so that we don't have to maintain two sets of these entities
(yuck!).  In the meantime, yes, just translate a new
docs-common/common/fedora-entities-el.ent directly from the en_US
version.  Sorry about the confusion; I thought we had eradicated the
need for those files, but there's obviously still work to do. :-)
