I'm sorry I missed your email! Yes, please go ahead and make these
changes. As for content, I can provide you w/ what you need... however,
at the moment I don't have time to sit down and write it. You can
either start w/ an outline, or create a page with most of the content
missing... or just hold off for now on things you're unsure of. After I
finish the article for java.sun.com, finish the screencast for JSR 314,
review the new GlassFish book, and work on a couple high-priority tasks
for my day-job... then I should have more time. Even though I have a
lot to do... the good news is that it is all due yesterday, so it
shouldn't last too long. ;)
