I did sent it to Guylhem Aznar in February 2002. The original version of 
this patch was fixing a number of defects of the fr-latin9 file shipped 
with the Francophone HOWTO.

I had to send him a few additionnal e-mails before getting an answer. He
answered me in May of the same year telling me that "he would put that
on the list of things to improve next time".

I had no news since then. I am rather skeptical that he will consider my 
patch this time, as it seems he completely ignored my previous patch.

If you suggest that I submit this to Guylhem Aznar, it's just a waste of 
time.

If there is another way to submit this patch, I will be happy to submit
it. (I had a look to the current fr-latin9 file and I believe my version 
has a few improvements).

Thanks.
