They are fun. I played with making the foot logo be the zero, but it was hard not to make it read like a digit six instead.

It could start as a wiki, unless someone wants to write a git-based back end to open office, abiword or even gedit to let people review changes and work together. Indeed. Also, it will be out of date a year after publishing given how fast we are developing new things. Again the authoritative source would need to be online. But if the GNOME infrastructure is so unstable that a printed book becomes useless in six months to a year, what good is it? That would seem a much more pressing problem to me. Another approach would be to organise something along the lines of a book sprint. Yes, I've heard Adam Hyde speaking about these events. The only problem doing it from a 'community' perspective is that we won't be able to write things in a single 'voice'. Or rather, we will need a good editor that can warp it into a single voice. It is a little off putting when one chapter is using a different set of word choices than another [...] Yes, editing is an important part of publishing, as is assessing the market -- that is, who will benefit most from the work and what do they need. -- Liam Quin - XML Activity Lead, W3C, http://www.w3.org/People/Quin/ Pictures from old books: http://fromoldbooks.org/ ___ engagement-list mailing list engagement-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/engagement-list
