As you can see, the smallest book is nearly 6000 lines, whereas the
committers guide is only about 1100 lines. So, the CG would have to
expand to about 5 times its current size before it would be eligible
for "book status". :)
Nik, does 5000 lines sound like a good cutoff point for decisions in
the future about whether things should be a book or article?
