Thanks Tim,

Ralf pointed out to me that yes, she is in fact Italian. As I said to
Ralf, when I began to learn Axiom, some time ago now, I searched for
some information about library authors. This morning I found out that
she worked with Sorbonne University, I guess this is why I thought she
worked in France or was French
(https://dl.acm.org/profile/81100512392/colleagues). I also guessed,
from that link, you probably worked with her ;)

- Greg

BTW: the only file where a space is missing after colon for
category/domain/package is multsqfr.spad I think. I made a mistake,
and am fed up sometimes struggling with TypeScript/grep/Perl (pcre)
idiosyncrasies.
