				Nice job Laurent!! Havn't got a chance to really check out the site completely because I'm at work at the moment, but it looks pretty sweet, some helpful information. Thanks for making a free site with afro-cuban info, sometimes it is hard to find this kind of material on line. By the way the videos are working for me.

				The videos don't work for me, but I am on a Mac. Will this problem with Macs be corrected? It looks like a great site thought.

				Nice Laurent,
I had a bit of a problem with all the pop ups but got the videos to work eventually. You may remember me, I did some translation for you a few years ago.
Good luck with the project.
