I cannot for the life of me figure out where this came from.  I personally
don't even use either of these as my distribution of choice.

No one is expected to buy anything.  ??

Certainly not from me.

I have given up a fully paid trip to Vegas and Comdex, so that I may stay
home and work on some of the LDP issues.

We are honestly trying to make things better.  I will attempt to
repopulate C.O.L.A with the HOWTOs this weekend.

I get the point....I will work this weekend to correct this.

To be honest, I (nor anyone else that I am aware of) has been contacted me
in regards to this.  I am not talking about the discussion on ldp-discuss,
but rather outside of this.  This puzzles me if it is in such "high"
demand.  As I said above, I will work this weekend to correct it.

Thank You,
Tim
