jt, like the new format, looks like we will need a book entry as well.

There is now a section at the top of the vendors page for books. When we get
a sufficient number (let's say 5) they should get their own page.
BTW, to add CD vendors you now edit vendors.CD . I hope you like the new
setup. The definitions for all the tags are in vendors.CD.def. The translators
will have to add the translations for all the phrases in vendors.CD.def.
