Thanks, yes, we could. But as you point out there are no ebook formats 
to offer other than the .pdf version. We still do not have a .odt viewer 
that would work, nor do most libraries carry .odt viewers as well. IMO, 
we should try to promote our ODF formats as much as possible.

But this can easily be done when approaching the libraries with a 
suggestion to purchase our guides for their shelves. Most libraries will 
usually carry at least on complete set of guides for such 
large/popular/successful software projects. But yes, ebooks added to the 
list of suggestion when we approach libraries would be good and smart.

Cheers,

Marc
