Hello Hackers!

I will be starting a mailing list for the 'GtkBook' 
project at freelists sooner. An we can use all the 
help GNOME community can provide. I know that we 
can do a great job together, and make this 'GTK Book'
thing reach the light of the day before May 1st.

Ive got a few people willing to send in programs.

I hope we will meet in the 'GtkBook' mailing list
soon,
and split the tasks, divide the job, and conquer the
beast.

I dont know, why would GFDL be bad ? I mean GTK+ is a
moving target, every 6months or so a newer version
pops
up right ? Well I guess when Im bored of it, someone
can carry on, if its GFDL'ed.

Let me see, I could else use latex-2-html or something
for online viewing if not in PDF format.

Sure! [Acutally I had been using it all along!,
without
really wondering who mustve written it. ]
