Camping book

[Dave Everitt]

Magnus - I did make some earlier suggestions/edits and would be happy  
to implement them. I'm a sad and rather newbie (still working through  
the O'Reilly Git book) GitHub lurker (with no repos yet: http:// 
github.com/DaveEveritt) so let me know when you're ready and I'll  
start work - Dave E.

> Thanks for bringing this up again! I've pushed out what I have so  
> far, but not your latest suggestions (you had some more in an  
> earlier mail, right?)
>
> If you have a Github account I can give you (and anyone else who  
> wants to contribute) push-access. I'm a little busy at the moment,  
> but I'll try to fix it as soon as possible.
