I am thinking of releasing a new version, fixing some small bugs 
detected since the last version, adding the bonuses included in the 
French version, as well as some other (small) things. So you can send me 
the comments directly to my mail. In English or in French, as you prefer 
(my wife is French). Anyway the new version is not imminent as I am now 
in a busy period in my main occupation (which has nothing to do with 
typography, computing or typesetting).
