    The only problem with these is that all of them either refer to SPS 2003 or to "SharePoint Products and Technologies" - NONE are about WSS.

    Does this reflect the Resource Kit (i.e. does it have any WSS content at all - if not why not?) or is it that the person who selected just these chapters for publication had a (very strong) SPS 2003 bias?

    I would suggest that this error should be rectified immediately with the publication of some WSS chapters!

    (Nevertheless I have put up links to these chapters on the WSS FAQ site)
