Good idea.

We could build on this and help GNU more by promoting to local distributors.

I cannot seem to find some interesting info that was on GNUpress.org or 
GNU.org (sometime back) commenting on how to get the printed manuals 
onto local bookstore shelves.

Anyone else seen it?

These manuals could be promoted at libraries too.

[I am currently trying to contact a person featured in the UKUUG's 
printed newsletter who seems to have worked successfully on  a 'standard 
for Open source software for the libraries in Edinburgh'. His 
recommendations have been accepted and he seems to be full of energy to 
continue on a bigger scale -- a definite case for an honourary full 
membership with the AFFS?]

Best wishes,
