Paul,

Nice to hear from you.

For the next couple of weeks, I plan on authoring the book using sgml and Epic.
However, after I get the delivery for the Back-to_school Kit done, I plan on 
moving the
book into a mercurial repository so that everyone can play. I just don't have 
time to
do the setup earlier, if I'm going to have anything ready for August 8th.

This guide will link to the existing collection, but it, like the
getting started book, will not be in the collection. At least,
that's what the current plan is. 

The idea is to come up with a "simple" guide that helps with some of the common 
tasks
that anyone who loads OpenSolaris will need to do. The book will link to the 
current docs 
for more advanced procedures or for more exhaustive examples.

We are still working out exactly what will go in the book, so if you have any 
suggestions,
I'd appreciate them.

-Kathy
