Hi James - <br>It can be a race between Adam and I. :) I can get that information for you but not from this computer, so give me the weekend to look it up. <br><br>The E-Book Enlightenment full-color was beautiful. Really enjoyed getting that as a result of the Kickstarter donation. <br>

prepare "E-Book Enlightenment" for publication by Lulu. The Rural<br>
Design Collective did a printing of about 25 copies of that book some<br>
months ago, and they did a beautiful job on what I considered to be an<br>
unfinished (but still useful) book. If I did a printing with Lulu I'd<br>
want it to look more like a regular FLOSS Manual, with a white<br>
wraparound cover, etc.<br>
<br>
The thing that makes me wonder if doing the work required for this is<br>
worthwhile is that I have no idea of how many copies of the printed<br>
book "Make Your Own Sugar Activities!" have been sold. Since the FM<br>
website gets what profits there may (or not) be I'm thinking you would<br>
be able to give me a count. Obviously it was fun for me to have a<br>
printed book available but I do have to wonder if doing the same thing<br>
for the second book would be worth the effort. I can always just make<br>
an e-book out of it and post it to the Internet Archive. (MYOSA got<br>
67 downloads from there so far).<br>
<br>
The RDC might want to do another limited printing too. Their printing<br>
was in full color and really showed off the great artwork done for the<br>
book in a way that the normal FM printing would not. If only a small<br>
number were interested in getting a printed copy that might be a<br>
better way to go.<br>
