Here's the latest batch of handbook related info.  If I'm missing
anything (i.e., you're working on something and I don't have it listed
here, let me know).

Finished items
--------------
o Chapter 2, Installing FreeBSD
o Chapter 4, Ports Collection
o Chapter 15, PPPoE section
o Chapter 16, YP/NIS section (I'm going to try to commit this today)
o Chapter 17, Electronic Mail

Work in Progress
-----------------
o Chapter 1, Introduction - myself
o Chapter 6, Security - Bill Swingle <unfurl@dub.net>
o Chapter 7, Printing - Joel Sutton <jsutton@bbcon.com.au>
o Chapter 16, DHCP/dhclient section - Greg Sutter <gsutter@cdrom.com>
o Chapter 16, DNS section - Nick Esborn <nick@flatlan.net>

A few other things of note..

Chapter 16 of the Network Communications section will eventually be
renamed from 'Advanced Networking' to 'Other Services'.  This chapter
will include the YP/NIS, DHCP, and DNS sections along with the existing
content of that chapter.

Neil Blakey-Milner <nbm@FreeBSD.org> is working on moving Chapter 12, PC
Hardware Compatibility, to the Appendix and convert the remaining
appendices to use the <appendix> tag as they should, but aren't
currently.

If anyone else is interested in lending a hand, get in touch with me.
There's a range of things that can be done, which include anything from
going through completed and committed sections looking for blatant
errors or writing a missing section, so you don't have to be a good
writer in order to help out, you just need to be able to read :-)
