This is kind of funny.  Last friday the guy who runs this site contacted me via
phone regarding the domains I have registered (linuxkb.org, .com, and .net).  He
was very stunned when I gave him some insight into what we were doing.  I extended
the offer for him to join our efforts and when I discovered he ran a consulting
business in Seattle (sounds like a one man shop) I asked if he had commercial
interest in the KB.  He said perhaps and we left it at that.

I asked him to send me an email so that I could follow up and send him some more
information.  I sent him links to the devel site, etc. and he wrote back saying it
looked great.  I responded in turn extending our thanks and that was the last I
heard from him (perhaps two days ago?).

I was going to send him another message but hadn't gotten around to it yet.  I took
a look at the KB he has online as well and was very un-inpressed.  It'd be great if
he was willing to help out, looks like he has a lot of HOW-TO leg-work done... but
his site is not at all whet I am envisioning.

Thoughts?

Thanks.
