I purchased this book nearly a year ago shortly after I began using FreeBSD and it has been an invaluable resource ever since. Now that you have made it publicly available, maybe the FreeBSD project could find a way to merge some of your book in with their own handbook or at least link it on FreeBSD.org for newbies like myself to easily find :).
