Hi,
I thought that the "bridge of the A was a little bit too empty.
Not wanting to stir up discussions old and past, I just had the
impression that the bridge looked more or less like a snake, or
caterpillar, with strange things over its back. I hope the bridge
of the A is now more in line with the rest of the design.

Using the good suggestions in this thread, here are a few more characters.
I also used "," and "." for anti-aliasing purposes. We need only a few
more characters!
