Let us know when you have a draft or outline or something that can
be previewed. I've added far too much to the 'in progress' list
in the past that has been abandoned. I take full responsibility
for that. As a new year's resolution, I'd like to make sure what
is promised is actually well on it's way to being delivered! ;-)
btw, we only accept docs in XML or SGML. See the LDP Author Guide for
details. Here are some pointers to help you get started:
