[edit] Current publishing

In case this is of interest to others: After Interplay's near-collapse, Vivendi has been publishing IWD. It is available in a compilation box with the expansion pack and IWD2. It is also available in a standalone budget release format. Ham Pastrami (talk) 04:55, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Origin of Poquelin's name

I had wondered about the French origins of the Brother Poquelin character, then I came across this information from Wordsmith (Word of the Day). The French playwright Molière wrote a play called Tartuffe, with the pen name Jean-Baptiste Poquelin, about a hypocritical cleric who feigns virtue in religious matters. Doesn't that describe Brother P. to a T? I don't know if this was a coincidence or by design of the writers. Any official info would be of interest. Calydon (talk) 20:23, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
