Nice idea - but do you have any experience in how much work it is to
write this sort of book? I spent probably 500 hours working on my
section of the nublu book and we got the staggering payment of $200 -
plus five copies - for that labour.
Why would I spend perhaps another 100 hours updating it with no chance
of payment, lots to do already and mostly little return except
complaints that it's out of date?
