"Dear all

Please note that Peer Information, our parent company, has just been
declared officially insolvent (bankrupt). This means that all current book
projects end immediately and there will be no more friends of ED books. All
of us that worked here are now unemployed. Please accept my apologies for
the sudden announcement, but it came as a bolt out of the blue to all of us
here - we knew the company had been in trouble but had been led to believe
it would be able to pull through, this turned out not to be the case.

Many thanks, you've all been a joy to work with....

This letter was received and passed on by a now former FOE author.

Sad thing it is. I know alot of people got alot out of Freinds of Ed's instructional Flash books.
