Thanks

Fear and Desire is available in a non-USA-region DVD release in PAL format, so if you have the technology, you can watch it. If you don't I don't think it would be worth it to gear up just for that purpose.

Paths of Glory on Blu-ray will be out from Criterion Collection October 26, for $39.95, discounted to $31.96 if ordered from their webstore.

I should also mention that though Spartacus is already available in Blu-ray, it is not the Criterion Collection version and I have been told that it is inferior to the Criterion Collection DVD. So it would be great if Criterion would do that for BD too; consider it not yet done.

The crux, of course, is Barry Lyndon. A good BD release of a restored Barry would be a messianic event, IMHO.
