With money get back by the books sell we can finance FPC development. Here is an example: I'm an italian delphi win32 programmer that wants to move to linux operating systems, and I found this book http://gapil.truelite.it/ that explain in italian how to develop under linux. This book, 700 pages, is free and opensource, is distribuited online but you can *buy* also a printed copy on lulu.com. With money of every sell the author add more pages to the book. Note that lulu.com doesn't print books until their are sold. There is not a wast of paper :-) So, buying this book, i financed the book itself and i have got a well readable copy of this monolitic documentation. What do you think about? Bye all Corrado
