It might help to have a nice book out by a big publisher. Any interested in and/or knowledgeable enough to write a book for O'Reilly Press (or some other big company, but they seem to be top dog for a lot of tech books). I could help to an extent, but I'm not heavily knowledgeable enough about security, and really have only been using the OS for about a year. -Jim Stapleton
