Problem with seminar-example of release 0.0.9d

Hello,

i just found the time to have a closer look at the latest release of 
texpower. Great Work Stephan and Hans :-)

I was just wondering why the file 'seminardemo.pdf' shows a huge 
(Acroread says 447.8x579.5 mm), portrait page with the actual slide 
in the upperleft corner. I also processed the file 'seminardemo.tex' 
using pdfLaTeX and i get this strange result too.

If i use LaTeX->'dvips -t landscape'->ps2pdf or insert
'\renewcommand{\printlandscape}{\special{landscape}}' in the tex 
source everything is working fine. Despite the fact that letterpaper 
was meant to be used and the slides are placed a bit on the left of 
the a4page AcroRead shows me, but that's not a problem and could be 
fixed be giving the right option 'a4'.

Any idea what is leading to these strange pagesizes using pdfLaTeX?

I know that seminar is a "problem" because of the lack of a real, 
bugfree LaTeX2e version but it is still a great class providing a lot 
of useful features.

BTW i read something once that powersem is meant to be such a bugfree 
version someday IIRC. Is this still true? Is there some progress or 
maybe something i could do for achieve such progress? I was thinking 
about doing a rewrite of seminar.cls (the slighly 2e version by 
Sebastian Rahtz, David Carlisle and Denis Girou) which includes the 
bugfixes, etc. but i'm just starting to learn more about LaTeX2e 
programming so i'm not sure if there will ever be something which i 
can release.

Okay, sorry for this long email handling a tiny question and the 
rather offtopic ending.

Best regards
   Martin
