My efforts over the last several months with Amazon have not borne any fruit yet:(<br><br>OLPC may be able to leverage their relationship with Amazon more effectively.<br><br>BTW, Thanks for maintain the OLPC/SL manuals. When we started talking back in July who would have thought things would move this far, this fast!<br>

Hi all - <br>I just wanted to send an update to the list about the work we're doing to get the book available for sale in conjunction with the G1G1 launch. FLOSS Manuals has paid the fee to get an ISBN number through Lulu's publishing system and re-did the cover and interior to include the ISBN. I purchased a proof copy which should arrive Monday. Once I approve the proof, according to the Lulu FAQ, it make take up to 6-8 weeks to get the book listed on Amazon. <br>
<br>Does anyone know how we could encourage Amazon to list the book sooner? The ISBN number is 978-0-615-26067-9. Does anyone have a contact at Amazon who can expedite this process? <br><br>I think that the manual's availability will help drive down support costs so I believe this request is important. I have talked with Lulu representatives and they recommend discussing with Amazon.<br>
<br>Thanks!<br>Anne<br clear="all"><font color="#888888"><br>-- <br>Anne Gentle<br>email: <a href="mailto:annegentle@justwriteclick.com" target="_blank">annegentle@justwriteclick.com</a><br>
