I've begun to put on Finch the audio transcript of the faq into  
French. It is in aac, but I have the aif files on my drive if the  
quality of aac is not good enough.

To get an idea of what the result is, you may browse:
<http://finch.finkproject.org/~miga/FINK-QFP/>

Chapters 1 and 2 are online.

Tell me if it is suitable.
