+\title{Mbbxxx series}
+\subtitle{Informations}
+\author{Anthony Phan}
+\endtitle
+
+\nonfrenchspacing
+
+The {\it Mbboard}\/ series are quite good quality fonts primarily intended
+to be used as blackboard bold fonts in mathematical texts typesetted
+in \TeX\ with Computer Modern as main fonts' set. Their design comes
+from printed mathematical books and articles, and, thus, from
+some commercial fonts. One of the main contribution of the
+mbboard-series lies in its completeness as one could se further on,
+completeness due to their author's work only.
+
+These fonts have been designed in such a way that they can be used
+as text fonts, even if such texts would be hardly readable.
+This also means that even if they are mostly intended to be used
+in mathematical formulae, they are not ``mathematical fonts''
+as understood in the MetaFont experts' community. I believe that
+it doesn't matter to much since these are upright fonts (in some
+cases, one would have to insert some negative thin space in subscrits).
+
+The current distribution of these fonts and \TeX's packages
+is the {\it mbboard0.4}\/ which appears to be quite good and
+stable. The two supported subseries are {\it mbbXX}\/ and
+{\it mbbxXX}\/ where {\it XX}\/ is the point size. Other
+subseries should be seen as oddities and, then, unsupported.
+The author also claims no responsability in translations
+of these fonts into other formats (type 1, etc.).
+
+\section{Progress}
+
+\subsection{Mbboard0.0, january 2000}
+Space and time initial distribution.
+If most glyphs look correct, kerning
+properties are to be checked. The
+dagesh marking is to be changed.
+
+\subsection{Mbboard0.1, april 2000}
+There have been changes in ligtables and designs:
+
+\item{$\bullet$}
+There is no more automatic c--t nor s--t
+ligature in the basic encoding.
+The corresponding glyphs have to
+be accessed directly with \cs{\ctlig}
+or \cs{\stlig} in text mode.
+
+\item{$\bullet$}
+There is now a dagesh sign such that
+this sign plus a Hebrew letter
+give the Hebrew letter with dagesh
+by ligaturing system. Otherwise,
+it does nothing. Its location
+on mbb's encoding is the former
+shereq sign's location.
+This last glyph has been removed
+from the basic encoding.
+
+\item{$\bullet$}
+Some vertical overshots have been corrected.
+
+\item{$\bullet$}
+The Roman shaped `a' and `3' have been slightly modified.
+
+\item{$\bullet$}
+Dorian pi has been rewritten.
+
+\item{$\bullet$}
+Kerning properties are still to
+be checked.
+
+\subsection{Mbboard0.2, december 2000}
+Just code-check before the first ``expected
+to be stable''-distribution.
+
+\subsection{Mbboard0.3, june 2001}
+Input files' names have been changed in order
+to avoid conflicts with other source files---such
+as the bbold's ones (Alan Jeffrey's fonts).
+
+Roundish bowls are experimented. It will lead
+to a simpler code: there will be less explicit
+intersection control sequences.
+
+\subsection{Mbboard0.4, october 2001}
+Some control sequences' names or variables' names
+have been changed. Roundish bowls have been (not fully)
+implemented. Some important changes have been done:
+
+\item{$\bullet$}
+The width of `lambda' is now equal to the width of `A'.
+(so that metrics have changed!)
+
+\item{$\bullet$}
+Percent sign and related ones have been corrected.
+(someone could have told me of that error!)
+
+\item{$\bullet$}
+The letter `e' and related ones have been sharpen;
+`xi', `zeta' have been slightly changed\dots\ and so on.
+
+\item{$\bullet$} 17pt size has been introduced.
+
+\item{$\bullet$} A whole bold extended font has been created.
+
+\item{$\bullet$}
+Kerning properties are still to be checked.
+
+\subsection{Mbboard0.5, october 2001}
+The main change is my trial to get rid of every {\tt square\_end}
+control sequence. But it alters design quite deeply. So design
+itself is at least slightly changed. Some metrics have changed
+too just because I could not remember why I've made some odd
+choices. All those changes can not be reported without making
+a comparison between this version and the former one.
+
+\item{$\bullet$}
+The width of `cedilla' has changed, it's now very thin just
+as `ogonek'. (So that metrics have changed!)
+
+\item{$\bullet$}
+Kerning properties are still to be checked.

+\section{Other basic control sequences}
+The most important control sequence is \cs{\mathbb}
+which has one argument and is similar to the
+classical one. There is also \cs{\mbb}
+which changes current font in text or math mode
+to blackboard. Those two control sequences are available
+in plain\TeX\ and La\TeX.
+About text, usual \TeX's control sequences
+or ligaturing mechanisms apply.
+The c--t and s--t ligatures can be used via
+\cs{\ctlig} and \cs{\stlig}
+in text mode only, but switching to another
+font may produce oddities.
+French double quotes are obtained by `{\tt<<}'
+and `{\tt>>}'. But french single quotes cannot
+be obtained by `{\tt<}' nor `{\tt>}', they have

+\section{The \cs{\bbdagesh} construction}
+One of the most current diacritic marks in Hebrew is dagesh.
+If Hebrew is quite rarely used in mathematical composition,
+to our knowledge it appeared one time in a logic book with
+Hebrew letters from aleph to gimmel with, or not, dagesh mark.
+The fact that this mark cannot be applied by simply putting aside
+lead pieces lead us to design particuliar characters for those
+cases. The big question was how to switch from normal characters
+to marked ones. The last solution is to use ligaturing properties
+to make a dagesh mark meeting a Hebrew character becoming a dagesh
+marked Hebrew character. This means that a dagesh sign had to be
+designed, and that it had to have a nice behavior with other
+characters. By now, we don't know if the solution that we retain
+could be considered as a canonical one. It's just the one that
+is built-in the current version of our fonts. Look at samples below:
+$$
+\bbdagesh\bbaleph\bbdagesh\bbbeth\bbdagesh\bbgimmel
+\bbdagesh\bbdalet\bbdagesh\mathbb R
+\bbdagesh\mathbb U\bbdagesh\mathbb O
+$$

+\section{Mbb, the regular blackboard serie}
+
+The following font is actually the only one that is fully supported.
+This essentially means that evolution of metrical properties will be
+based on them. Other series could get some improvement as this one
+may do (I hope so), but that's not certain\dots

+As one can see in the following table, the Euro sign has
+been introduced in this T1-encoding. I just cannot
+remember which symbol I've then removed.

+
+\section{Mbbgr, why not some Greek version? (unsupported yet)}
+
+The following font consists only of a
+fairly simple rewriting of some driver
+file. Encoding has been inspired by
+Silvio Levy's work and some foregoing
+contributors. It is not
+(at that time) supposed to be a complete
+Greek font.
+
+\UsualTest{mbbgr10}
+
+\section{Mbbheb, what about a Hebrew version? (unsupported yet)}
+
+The following font should not be taken too seriously.
+There are at least three reasons for that.
+The first one is that it seems to contain a lot of
+diacritic marks, but the fact is that we don't know
+how to deal with them. If they are to be handled by
+a \cs{\accent} mecanism, their metrical design
+should fit that. If they are not, what should be done?
+Secondly, there is the great encoding matter. I can't remember
+why I choosed the following encoding. It was inspired,
+I think, by some comparisons with existing ones, expecially
+with unicode specifications and with Yannis Haralambous' work
+on tiqwah fonts. The last reason that comes to my mind
+is that I know nothing about Hebrew and, furthermore,
+about Hebrew typographical composition.
+So, most of this serie is a first draft for an unexpectable
+and unusefull Hebrew font.

+Il y a quelques ann\'ees, je d\'ecouvrais l'univers
+de \TeX\ par contrainte. Jusqu'alors je m'\'etais
+efforc\'e d'y \'echapper pensant que celui-ci me
+serait imp\'en\'etrable. M\^u par je ne sais quel
+enthousiasme, je finis par m'y mettre en abordant
+La\TeX\ sur un Mac. Pas typographe pour deux sous,
+ni informaticien pour une roupie, je dus faire face
+\`a de nombreuses difficult\'es. Mon plus grand
+succ\`es \`a l'\'epoque fut de d\'ecouvrir et de
+pouvoit utiliser la fonte {\tt msym} qui r\'esidait
+encore sur l'ordinateur dont je me servais. Celle-ci
+comblait mes attentes quant \`a disposer de caract\`eres
+ad\'equats pour repr\'esenter ---~entre autres~---
+les ensembles fondamentaux. H\'elas, d'une plateforme
+on doit passer \`a une autre simplement parce que
+l'on change de bureau. J'ai alors red\'ecouvert (avec
+r\'etiscence) les syst\`emes de type Unix et surtout
+les distributions \TeX\ pour ceux-ci. Il n'y avait
+plus de {\tt msym} mais seulement un {\tt msbm} qui ne
+me plaisait pas. De nombreuses recherches sur le web
+se seront sold\'ees par la conviction qu'il fallait
+recoder ce qui me faisait d\'efaut. J'ai alors
+emprunt\'e une premi\`ere fois le {\tt MetaFontbook}
+et j'ai commenc\'e par les premiers exercices\dots

+On November 14, 1885, Senator \& Mrs.~Leland Stanford called
+together at their San Francisco mansion the 24~prominent men who had
+been chosen as the first trustees of The Leland Stanford Junior University.
+They handed to the board the Founding Grant of the University, which they
+had executed three days before. This document---with various amendments,
+legislative acts, and court decrees---remains as the University's charter.
+In bold, sweeping language it stipulates that the objectives of the University
+are ``to qualify students for personal success and direct usefulness in life;
+and to promote the publick welfare by exercising an influence in behalf of
+humanity and civilization, teaching the blessings of liberty regulated by
