I just forgot to say that a cast of *Caudipteryx* is now in Vienna's natural history museum... I'll take a close look at it tomorrow. :-) :-) :-) So far I can only lament that the feathers are not visible, and say that the skeletal restorations in the SciAm Book of Dinosaurs have too straight a pubis (it is more vertical than in *Oviraptor* but likewise curved and booted).
