Versions Errata

2. 18/4/06 :: (v. 1.0.1) In § 1.5 The Homeland, first image footnote, Greek and Armenian spread to the southwest, and indo-arian to the southeast.
3. 08/5/06 :: (v. 1.0.2) In the Preface, direct EU official translation / interpretation costs, it is obviously not 10.000 M€, but 1.000M€.
