Hi Charles Great that a book is being considered. I know you have been spending a lot of time to get familiar with SMX and OSGi. So you are a perfect candidate as a co-author for the book.
For the Apache, SMX and the community in general, such a book would be much welcome. So go for it, and I am sure some other SMX and OSGi experts wanna team up and help writing the book.
