Just what I was in search for!
I'm a postgraduate student and I've Virology as a focal point in my studies. My professor in Retrovirology wasn't really structured in bringing the stuff over to us. Besides studying in a language which is not your own (german) deteriorated the situation. As a consequence, I was in search of help and I stumbled over this great piece online. I'm more than satisfied with it; it covers all the sections I became mixed up with during the lectures and more. I would call it the bible of retro virology. I've my exams in a few weeks time and I look forward to it with optimism. I just need to do some thorough revision and I think all should be okay. So I strongly recommend this piece.

A last word to the authors, I think publishing an updated version won't be a bad gesture. The current version is three years old and we all know there is strong research going on in this biological discipline.
