hey

Sorry, I saw this thread a bit late. I hope its not too late to chime
in. I think the Getting started guide you have made looks great Avi.
Good work!

I wanted to ask Dougie a question about a comment he made (see below)

It sounds like you are really frustrated by FLOSS Manuals. I was
wondering if you could say more about this? For clarities sake, I
founded FM, and I'm asking because it seems you have had some sort of
dealing with us that you didn't like? If I can help clear this up I
would welcome the opportunity. My apologies if I have misinterpreted
your tone.

kind regards,

adam
