How hard would it be for a group of Hams to create an alternative
"Handbook"?

An ebook could be cheap or free - print-on-demand for those who
really want it - an expensive but available option.

Most of the formatting could be automated via free apps.

Could be both a fun and valuable project.

WDYT?
