Title: RE: [freetds] RE: User Guide status

Thanks, Conny.  EncouragingWords has an optional many-to-one relationship to DocumentationPages. 

It will be put to CVS and installed on www.freetds.org when it's ready.  That other link is just temporary, for interested parties who want to offer feedback. 

I want the docs to be inviting, useful, complete, and correct.  Not necessarily in that order, although that may be how it works out.  ;-)

Great going! Now just make sure that your guide gets linked from that
www.freetds.org page!

Thanks again :-D
