Hi

Here is some information relating to the present discussion.

The original poster, according to the email address, is a professor of
computer science at a French university, who is the co-editor of a
collection of studies in software engineering. The book is in English, and
appears to be typeset using LaTeX. I do not know why the original poster
wrote in French rather than English.

Abou 1 in 17 of the world population live in former French colonies. I
think it reasonable to expect that most such people will have French as
their second (or lower) language, and that French is their best European
language. My source is
https://www.nationmaster.com/country-info/groups/Former-French-colonies.

Here are some contributors to our community who are from former French
colonies or regions of important French influence.

   - Hàn Thế Thành, PDFTeX, Vietnam
   - Khaled Hosny, Arabic fonts, Egypt
   - Behdad Esfahbod, HarfBuzz text shaping, Iran and Canada

I wonder, are there more such contributors? I do hope so. Yannis
Haralambous was born in Athens, and obtained bachelor and doctorate degrees
in mathematics in France.

with kind regards

Jonathan
