In your email to pkg-doc-linux-devel, you mentioned wanting to help patch the FAQ, you didn't mention that in your email to David. Just wondering if your plan changed? I thought you might send an example of your writing style so that David could determine if he wanted to include it in the Linux-FAQ. I don't know if that is what David would prefer however. -- Doug Jensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
