Walnut Creek sells FreeBSD.  I think there might be a case made for this, 
but I would guess discussion is called for.  I'd _want_ the handbook 
published, and no one will do it for free.  I want the CDROM pressed, 
too, what's the key difference you see?  I don't pretend to be a lawyer, 
comment on this.
