Jim,
  Randy's the lead now, but I can see some of your point, but not all.
BLFS is a community effort too.  I personally don't mind you taking
whatever you think is appropriate and putting it into CBLFS.  In fact,
that is allowed by the license.

  I see the note: "Please don't add information from BLFS. BLFS is
copyrighted."

  To me that is not necessary.  What I'd like to see is a note that BLFS
and CBLFS are separate, but cooperating, projects and several (many?) of
the pages in CBLFS are taken from BLFS and modified as necessary for
CBLFS.  A single link to BLFS (for 32bit Intel systems) in the same
place would be nice too.

  In the same manner, BLFS could put a note in the Preface saying that
it is focused on Intel-32 bit architectures as is LFS and that other
architectures are covered in CBLFS.
