 Helloooooooooooooooooooo,

 Wow. Common timezone again. Cool `;-)`

 > `normalize_hadamard` does not do what I need; I need a different type of
 normalization, in fact, where the matrix has the 1st row consisting of 1s,
 and still H+H.T==2*I,

 entry)

 Sounds right. Then you can have a proper documentation and stuff. If you
 plan to use it elsewhere that's even better.

 matrices there.

 Okayokay.

 > How about we have a `PseudoLatinSquaresGraph(m,n)` or
 `PseudoOrthogonalArrayBlockGraph(m,n)` ? (I'd prefer the former name; or
 maybe we can have both?)

 +1 to the former. With a description of what it is in its doc, if possible
 `^^;`
