For the Linux section, this version includes a tutorial for installing KDE and Enlightenment E17 on Linux Ubuntu 5.10, and a tutorial for installing Linux Suse 10.0.
A new section containing information about LiveCDs has also been created (AROS, Freevo...)

Hi SoundSquare !

Sorry but I thought you were waiting V1.3beta to be published before reading... Sorry for the misunderstanding.
I've just sent you an email for you to get an editable version ;-)

For the "paper book", As you & bbrv say we have to wait for a stable version (not easy as things are always moving in computer science),
but that would be nice !

@bbrv

great ! that would be a valuable addon to the ODW documentation !

@Geoffrey

this book will never be "finished" as we'll always have more to add into it, but it would be still great to publish a "snapshot" of it once in a while :-)
It still needs work untill we reach a good snapshot though.
