Those changes were made by Michael Ferguson at INRS Telecommunications,
Montreal, in TeX version 1.2.  Personnally, I will wait until we both run 2.0
before making another move.

According to Mike, the differences are quite small, though patchy (he has
to strip the accents, send the work for hyphenation and put back the accents
in the result).

I'm told INRS will be on the cdn net real soon now (as soon as UBC makes up
its mind on the licensing of their electronic mail software)
