Robert, no one is "devaluing" anything. The Kennett article, which runs to some 10 pages, is more recent than the information you posted, which you dated from 1945. Kennett includes changes made in French proof in the 1960's. That's why I said "most complete and up to date source". Obviously, something written in 1945 couldn't include changes made in the 60's.
Why not make a New Year's resolution, Robert, to try to be a bit less sensitive and defensive in 2008? Don't assume that any post suggesting a source or information that adds something to what you posted as an attack. See it as exactly what's supposed to happen on this forum: an open exchange of information and sources.
Unfortunately, we don't have one single source that includes comprehensive proof information, for all nations with proofhouses, from the beginning to the present. Now there's a very worthwhile task for someone who wants to do the research--and there would certainly be a market for it in published form.
Merry Christmas!
