I hope to finish my book real soon now.

Let us know when it's done. I'll surely order a copy.

I'll do my best to promote it without getting crass.

Some real competition. I certainly wish you well, such a book would be
a valuable addition to the many other Linux books available.

I'm focusing a bit more on "soft skills" like
requirements analysis, recovery and capacity planning,
the view that security considerations permeate all
aspects of professional systems administration, and
the design of whole networks rather than isolated
hosts.
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
These are elements that seem to be missing from the existing
literature.

The Macmillan folks are really nice people. They host our local LUG,
INLUC (Indiana Linux Users Consortium, <A HREF="http://inluc.tctc.com">http://inluc.tctc.com</A>)

My editor mentioned something along those lines.

If you ever make a trip to the Indiana Macmillan offices, maybe we can
arrange the date so that you can come to one of our meetings, which
are usually held on the third Wednesday of the month.

If I can afford it I'll do a full tour.

Thanks for your supportive comments. Now all I have to
do is get the thing done!
