the selection which is displayed in this dialog cannot!

I've added a section, please review.


As the next Ethereal release 0.10.6 seems to be planned, I would like to 
release this book (as it's related to 0.10.5) any time soon.

Is it possible for you to hurry up the review a bit? So we might release 
this book before the weekend? (Yes I know, time is precious, I'm busy 
myself).
