Hi, Well the lady from Que publishing got back to me about the book. I'm going to an organic farm to work for the summer, and I may not be able to devote as much time as this may require. I do want to help, even if I write a couple of pages. I have kept the emails of everyone who said they would like to help, to forward to her. She requires you sign a non-disclosure agreement, a resume, a sample of your writing, and salary requirements. Anyone who wants to try, let me know. This is the first few lines of her latest email to me: ################################################### Hi Joe, Thanks for getting back with me so quickly. Let me first tell you a little more about this book... tentatively titled Special Edition Using SuSE Linux, this book will likely be 1,000+ pages. I would like for it to be written in a three-month period, which, if writing began in early April, would enable us to publish the book in October. This likely means having several people write, if not collaborate, on the book. Que's Special Edition Using series is one of the most popular series in computer book publishing; while we do require an aggressive schedule in order to make our books competitive, most authors will agree that the rewards are worth it, both intrinsically and financially. I've attached guidelines for this series for your review. ####################################################### I think the experts at Suse should be involved in this. Hubert, Bodo, Stephan ??? what do you guys think? I really only know how to run Suse as a workstation, a book like this needs server experts. -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archive at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>
