Yes, I have some time now (some months are free), so I have focues on Lessons for Lizards (LfL), and wrote the majority of the book. (over 50% content are my articles), and now I have started the AppArmored FireFox thing... you're welcome too... for AppArmored FireFox check in openSUSE bugzilla, and for LfL link is here: http://en.opensuse.org/Documentation since i'm not a programmer, I cannot improve the code directly, but I do a lot of beta-testing, user support, and other things that are kind of invisible. -- -Alexey Eremenko Technologov
