[FM Discuss] fm inspires occupy to make a book

Personally, I think anyone serious about producing books (other than
Free Software manuals) should investigate hosting their own Booktype
instance.

At the moment, the community is heavily centralised around a few
servers, which means that there is an admin burden on a small group of
volunteers. Plus the end users don't get to learn about how to install
and administer Booktype, which limits the growth of the community.

I'm hoping to address that problem by making some easy-installing .deb
(and possibly .rpm) packages for Booktype and Objavi in future.

Cheers!

Daniel
