(Texlive 2007) Well, it is not as good as babel, while I don't really understand, what is the difference. In the German hyphen file there is an example of exceptional hyphenations: should we add here all the cases in which the algorithm doesn't work? It's maybe every tenth hyphenation, I guess. In general, there are many issues with the pdfs that could be improved: in German there seems to be something like "french" spacing on, e g. after full stops is a bigger space. (As Werner pointed out, this has nothing to do with the spaces set in the source file.) Also each paragraph has both a skip and an indent. This is redundant. One of them should go. Are these texi2pdf-settings or are they somehow built into the build scripts? Nice would be also some kind of protection for environments like those coding examples: something like at least 3 lines, otherwise it goes to the next page. This is kind of widow (?) penalty, I don't know if the program supports this? If etex is used as the setting machine then I guess it should be possible. I am still somehow dreaming about a a5-version of the docs offered via some printing on demand service... There could be some 2€ going to LilyPond-development...
