If your offer is still open, I would appreciate it.  If your plans have
changed, that's ok too.

I can get all the files to build and they look ok but, the debs won't
build so I'm obviously doing something wrong.

The following information might be useful, it's based on 2003-10-05 HOWTOs,
if you want to work from a newer version that's ok with me.

* Oddities:  Xnews-under-Linux was renamed Windows-Newsreaders-under-Linux,
             however, Xnews-under-Linux/index.html still remains in the html
	     version of the HOWTOs from sunsite.  This shouldn't be a problem
	     for the .debs because split-packages finds no license, and drops
	     Xnews-under-Linux.
* New Linux FAQ version 2.1.1 (Closes: #119942).
  (fixes Debian FTP links)
* Renamed HOWTOs:
  Xnews-under-Linux-HOWTO -> Windows-Newsreaders-under-Linux-HOWTO (GFDL 1.2)
* New HOWTOs:
  Encrypted-Root-Filesystem-HOWTO (GFDL-1.2 (has no invariants) 
  Sybase-ASE-HOWTO (GPL-2) Traffic-Control-HOWTO (GFDL-1.1)
* Updated HOWTOs (No license changes):
  Apache-WebDAV-LDAP-HOWTO (No license, defaults to LDPL-2.0)
  Disk-Encryption-HOWTO (GFDL 1.2)
  Kernel-HOWTO (LDPL-2.0)
  MP3-CD-Burning (GFDL-1.1)
  Serial-HOWTO (LDPL-Manifesto)
  Text-Terminal-HOWTO (LDPL-Manifesto)
  User-Group-HOWTO (LDPL-2.0)
  XFree-Local-multi-user-HOWTO (GFDL-1.1)
  XFree86-R200 (GFDL-1.1)

If it would be useful to coordinate a time, anytime is fine with me.
