seems to be widely admited: 20 000 000 of LaTeX users worldwile
                       and  30 000 000 of Word users.

I don't agree with those who cry about the decline of TeX in the world.
This is absolutely wrong around me, specially in France.
I agree to cry about the decline of the TUG membership but this is
certainly not due to the decline of TeX and this is another discussion...
