Nice! Hope the DVD comes out soon and isn't restricted by region  
limitations.

BTW, is it customary for people in the English-speaking world to pay  
so much attention to matters of typography? I always wondered that,  
since seeing in the "copyright" page of English books, mentions like  
"This book was typeset in Plantin 10pt". I never saw that in French  
books.
