Not that I don't find the subject interesting (or challenging ;-) but I would want to keep the book on a level that almost all Gentoo users can read (and learn) from it. In my opinion, bootstrapping or toolchain recompilation should either not occur, or should occur in the background (during system updates) without much intervention of the end user.

I would like to know if you will cover some technical issue, like the bootstraping or the recompilation of the toolchain. I know that you have wrote in the past this guide : http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/draft/bootstrapping-guide.xml and I sure that you can tell us some info about this subject. Great work :P Hi Sven, this book is very nice.
