Matthieu Riou commented on INCUBATOR-70:
----------------------------------------
Write a book about your project.
It's a lot of tedious work but you can also propose to co-write with other
authors to ease the pain (the editor can find them if the proposal is
interesting or you can suggest names). But it's still going to be a very large
and long endeavor. It's a very effective way to promote both your project and
yourself (as a writer). Some people won't even use a piece of software for
which no book have been written.
To propose a book, just go to the contact section of the editor's website to
get the editorial inquiries e-mail address and write a project proposal.
Describe the subject of the book and the targeted audience. A rough table of
content will also help them in understanding what it could look like but don't
spend too much time on it, at this point you have no guarantee that this will
interest them.
Good editors: o'reilly, manning, apress. Others?
