As the subject says, two very minor remarks on the Lucida Type 1 support files:

- The TUG Lucida site contains

	http://www.tug.org/store/lucida/lucida-type1.tex
	http://www.tug.org/store/lucida/lucida-type1.pdf
	http://www.tug.org/store/lucida/README-type1.txt

which are new versions and names for the files

	http://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/psnfssx/lucidabr/lucida-sample.tex
	http://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/psnfssx/lucidabr/lucida-sample.pdf
	http://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/psnfssx/lucidabr/README.TUG

from CTAN. I imagine the current Type 1 distro from TUG contains these new files too. Is it on purpose that lucidabr hasn't been updated on CTAN?

- With the basic and complete distributions of Lucida Type 1 now gone, and only the complete distribution remaining, wouldn't it make sense to set [expert] as the default option instead of the current [noexpert]? E.g., line 409 of lucidabr.dtx on CTAN reads

	\ExecuteOptions{noexpert,lucidascale,slantedgreek,mathitalic1,errorshow}
