Zentara,
About Three months ago this guy sent me a similar email claiming he had
read over 800 of my posts while searching the DejaNews and threw me some
flattery claiming he recognized in me the skills necessary to write a
book on Linux, not SuSE. Then came the same pitch he gave you. I gave
him the same response as you. I can't believe a reputable book
publisher would "shake a bush" this way. A con artist trying to flush
pidgeons might.
