You say this, but don't have to do any of the work. Perhaps you don't realize how difficult it is to put together text *for a book*. Text that needs to be accurate, well-reading, concise, grammatically correct and to the point. Much different than blabbering in a mail list. The text needs to be professional. Which mean professionally summarizing all this you mentioned. This is hard work. What do you expect us to do, put a bunch of URLs in the book leading to threads in the mail lists? I cannot see this. -- Randy rmlscsi: [GNU ld version 2.15.94.0.2 20041220] [gcc (GCC) 3.4.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4] [Linux 2.6.10 i686] 20:27:00 up 121 days, 5:51, 3 users, load average: 0.21, 0.70, 0.82 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
