	Correct. It will be sold as a set. I've suggested it be sold by the year
as well (more potential customers that way).

	Bill has a couple of contracts taking up his time (got to make a living
and all that). I've volunteered to help with the production work. I might
be able to put things together once I have some articles and the graphics.
We are looking to move the production and publishing back to the States so
we can spread the work out a little more. FYI, we are looking to come
out with a hardcopy issue as well. With this in mind, we are more than a
couple of months ahead with the articles (I'm working on Aprils articles
right now). From the sounds of it Bill is quite overwhelmed and is almost
at the meltdown point.
