Hello, Welcome to wikibooks! I saw your note on the staff lounge, and I wanted to talk to you about your class project. I've been involved with a number of other class projects here in the past, and am interested in helping your project along as well. It certainly sounds interesting! I would ask you to read (or at least skim over) Guidelines for class projects, a resource that we've been compiling to help projects like yours get off to a good start.

I've done some significant work on several related books, such as Reverse Engineering, Embedded Systems, x86 Assembly, and other similar books. I'm starting my PhD dissertation research in this area, so i have some expertise that I could lend as well.

If you have any questions, or if you need any help at all, please don't hesitate to ask me on my user talk page. --Whiteknight (talk) (projects) 21:55, 9 January 2007 (UTC)


 * You aren't the first fuddy-duddy to experiment with the wiki medium, i assure you! for some examples of other books that resulted from class projects, see Human Physiology, and XML. There certainly is potential to make it a great experience for your class. --Whiteknight (talk) (projects) 22:06, 9 January 2007 (UTC)


 * I've added your book to Programming languages bookshelf. I don't know why you can't edit it, and I will try to figure out the problem. I've added your book at the very bottom, under the UNIX section. Let me know if you would like it moved anywhere else. --Whiteknight (talk) (projects) 22:13, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
