Could anyone who is either
1) Using Linux/Unix for being a tech writer (writing
on a Linux/Unix system, drawing there, reading email
there, etc.), or
2) Using Linux/Unix full-time or nearly full time at
home
please contact me offline? I have a couple of questions
to ask and some information to collect.
Thanks,
Eric
