I've been a bookcrosser for more than a year now (although not active
at all lately) and the webmaster of the french bookcrossing mirror.
There is one group that would be interested in "spreading the word "
through bookcrossing imo, which is the Christian BookCrossers group on
yahoo => <a href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/CBXers/">http://groups.yahoo.com/group/CBXers/</a> . Haven't posted
there for ages, but I know some of the people on the group. That might
be a very good idea indeed. We used to 'spread ideas' using
BookCrossing sometimes with BCers friends in France.<br>

<br>Christians, PitP would be great to have out in view when your home<br>fellowship group meets, or something like that. Likewise, a decent book on<br>how to use Ichthux would go a long way. Right now, I'm considering it - not
<br>promising.</blockquote><div><br>
Well, when Ichthux is ready to be used that is ... As so far it's only a live CD and very basic meta-packages ...<br>
