Subject: [jboss-docs] [Ann] Official JBoss book to be published by SAMS

ok guys,

some great news.

I just heard from Mike Stevens our publisher at SAMS publishing that the
"JBoss" book project has been approved.

What that means is that we will be writing the documentation book for a real
paperback format slapping the new version of JBoss at the back and off you
go, this is our distribution on every borders bookshelf of the world :)

You guys want a version of JBoss you know you can work with and for which
you have up to date documentation? this is it, buy the book online (through
www.jboss.org and we get a larger cut :).

What it means for the jboss-doco list is that now we are going to get really
serious about the quality and correctness of the documentation since SAMS is
going to massively distribute it.

More profoundly I believe this is a truly important step, it will put an end
to the "bouah doco is so-so" and will really mark a new era for JBoss.  One
where JBoss crosses the threshold of corporate acceptance like only Linux
and Apache guys did before us.  This is it, we are the third wave of Open
Source Technology.  What do you mean... a tier one application server with
professional documentation for the price of a book?

Did you hear that "Booooooooooooom"???? did you hear it?  If you are at BEA
you are already feeling that ground move... that bomb went off somewhere
near Indianapolis IN.

Seriously now it means that all those of you that want to make your moms
real proud, just get on that wave and help us write the documentation you
will get your name in a real book.

PLgDoco

PS: Juha and I are already writing a book for SAMS: JMX and J2EE coming soon
