Hi Raphaël, thanks for letting me know. My french is a little rusty, but it certainly looks OK from google translate.
I agree, using the inverse of the sexy move, and a perhaps a few more shortcuts can definitely speed it up. I kept this out of the tutorial because I think its nice to let beginners discover these tricks on their own. The tutorial gives them the bear minimum they need to solve the cube. Everything else comes from thoughtfulness and creativity :-)
Thanks again,
Conrad
