Why wouldn't they be? They have "Writing Apache modules with Perl and C" after all. And with Stas' and Eric's book on the way (www.modperlbook.org) they already have two books (soon hopefully). > If ORA wanted to cover mod_perl they should not have let Geoff & co. get > away to another publisher. Maybe they felt that the book(s) they already have signed for will/would saturate the market? A publisher can only justify a certain amount of books on each topic. [Don't really want to go into wheter or not mod_perl should be covered in gnat's book, but if they have decided to include it they are certainly within their rights to do so. If you don't like that, just don't buy the book?] -- Thomas Eibner <http://thomas.eibner.dk/> DnsZone <http://dnszone.org/> mod_pointer <http://stderr.net/mod_pointer> <http://photos.eibner.dk/> !(C)<http://copywrong.dk/> <http://apachegallery.dk/> Putting the HEST in .COM <http://www.hestdesign.com/>
