As the Java-Linux porting team, you seemed the best first-place to ask: Would you be interested in writing a major book on Linux and Java? Can you recommend anyone who might be interested? I'm looking for someone who can devote several months to create a comprehensive reference book to survey and catalog all the tips, tricks and tools available for Linux-based Java developers. This should include libraries, debuggers, profiling tools, reviews of IDEs ... and also include as much subliminal guidance to encourage *good* java programming skills as possible ;) This project is for a major publisher, so the sales can easily be in the tens-of-thousands of units; my own hidden agenda is to leverage opportunies like this to help fund those who put their heart and soul into opensource projects while simultaneously producing some much needed quality reference material that can bring Linux to an even wider material, and to use the opportunity to also spread some higher values such as good OOP design and coding style. If you're interested, or if you know someone who may be interested, please let me know via email at [EMAIL PROTECTED] You don't have to be an Ernest Hemmingway, but if you know your stuff and can put what you know into print, I'd like to hear from you.
