Hi,
A short message to tell you congratulations and thanks for this work. As
a translator I stay synchronized with your updates and, myself, I update
the French kook when you update svn repo, thanks to blfs-book mailing.
And I appreciate to see the book is alive, as I consider it's a major
book, very interesting, for lfs, but also for any usage. So really,
thanks!
Now I've a more powerful laptop. I hope I'll be able to help with a VM.
But... I've to find some time, limitated due to my Debian contrib.
But ... thanks again!
Sincerely,
-
