I'm sitting here flipping through the illustrated Gnus manual, and I
was thinking it might be nice to have it in a, eh, more permanent
format.  Like -- bound properly and stuff.

Now, I'm not saying I'm going to publish a bound version of the
manual, but I wonder whether there's any interest in having something
like that.  In one way, it's somewhat impractical -- infomation on
dead, flat trees get outdated after a millisecond, and people can
always print the thing out themselves.  And it will probably be heavy
-- the one I have is 1kg.  But -- if I were to do something like that,
would any one of you like to buy one if the price was not
unreasonable?
