I think Randy could definitely use some help from Dima or anyone else getting this finished.

Or for that matter, what exactly is the Handbook supposed to be? I'm more interested in clearly defining what we want the handbook to be and adding a paragraph to this affect to the Introduction chapter. Clearly the Handbook has a different purpose than a book like say, The Complete FreeBSD, we just need to define what that is exactly. As for the Developer's Handbook, I think its ok to leave this undefined for now since there are such huge gaps in the content and we're really not sure what sort of document we are going to end up with. - Murray To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
