Pass this on from Stefan Kottwitz, at his suggestion ... good luck!
(Thanks Stefan.)

We have two book giveaways:

https://latex.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=36370

https://tex.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/10304/another-latex-book-giveaway

It's a bit promotional, but it's free books! And I'd love to see TUG
members get them. Especially beginners. It's just a bit of luck, or even
better, a nice, interesting TeX/LaTeX comment to win books, then no luck
needed. I don't expect much activity. Same on
https://x.com/TeXgallery/status/2046538162705424545, what we had - just a
few responses and who posted a serious answer, won the book copy.

People should be encouraged to participate in both (!) to double their
chance.

If you like the idea, let's share the free books with TUG members that way.
When the next newsletter comes out, it would just be too late.

Thanks!

Stefan
