Steve -

	That is great news!  I really think an Open Source and Education book 
will make a huge difference - both for transmission of information 
(many people hate reading long texts from screens) and perhaps more 
importantly for legitimacy reasons.  'If there is a book written about 
it, then it must be important'  is a common sentiment.

	BTW - I saw a copy of the June Scholastic's Administrator magazine 
yesterday.  The cover article is 'THINK BIG - 10 radical ideas to try 
next year'.  One of the 10 ideas is 'Trash Windows and go Open Source" 
by Jim Hirsch (p.28).

	And so the drum beat continues....

	See you in July.
