11.3 Feedback.

Besides writing this HOWTO, maintaining the glibc 2 for Linux page, and using it on my machine, I have nothing to do with the glibc project. I am far from knowledgeable on this topic, though I try to help with problems mailed to me. I welcome any feedback, corrections, or suggestions you have to offer. Please send them to ejg3 at cornell.edu.
