I'll send a few comments later (BTW. would you prefer to have it here, or private?). One comment about on-line version: it might be better to have one chapter and not one (sub)section per HTML page. There are some sections that are not enough to even fill one single page. -- Jakub Narebski Poland ShadeHawk on #git
