1. Is there a real need for another book such as the The Book Of Linux

I (and your publisher) think there is. Indeed, I think the need is greater now than it
was for the first edition. I've been waiting a while now.
2. If so, would I be wise to ignore the 2.4 kernel
series ? (It would
make it easier to ignore material re: OSS/Free)
I think so. You can always refer people to the first edition with the
caveat that it is dated.
Btw, this is the last hurrah for this project. If I
don't take it now
I won't be taking it on at all. I have a life, it's pretty full, and
committing to this edition would be a major disruption. I can guarantee
that it would be the last book I'll ever write.
Please, Dave. You did such a great job with the first edition and I
can't think of anyone better suited and qualified to revise it.
