Re: [Zope-dev] ZODB Documentation Fundraising

Hi,

If you want a chapter on NEO (http://www.neoppod.org/) or book review, let us 
know, we can write or help. NEO is probably the fastest and most scalable 
storage for ZODB. We also have lots of benchmarks (we use ZODB for huge 
transactional banking applications and for the largest CRM operation  in 
Ireland).

Regards,

JPS.



 The blog: http://zodbdocs.blogspot.com/
 
 I am coordinating an effort to have a ZODB book written by one of our
 Zope clan, Carlos de la Guardia. He has completed a recent book for
 Packt publishing on Grok.  He showed interested in writing a ZODB book
 if it were under Creative Commons.  I have set up a blog and focused
 on behind-the-scenes coordination required to make the book happen.
 
 We are now at a point where:
 
 - There is an initial outline of topics to cover.
 - There is a way to contribute financially on the ZODB Docs Blog
 (through paypal).
 - If you can contribute to the book with written material and
 experience.  Let me know.  I will make a contributor on the blog and
 you can post articles.  Carlos is more than happy to consolidate/pinch
 material (and of course give the original author credit) and put it
 into the final book.  One of the thoughts would be to write ZODB
 mini-howtos/articles on the blog.  Some initial ideas: transaction
 module (datamanagers, aftercommithook, etc), debugging scenarios (how
 to debug a record being mutated accidentally), conflict resolution
 (writing your own custom impl, btree bucket splits, etc), concurrency,
 any benchmarking information you have, relstorage, writing your own
 persistence format (keas.pbpersist?), or query strategies for ZODB.
 There is a lot of material to cover in this book.
 - There are also contribution/funding levels available which correlate
 to recognition of your donation in the book.  That is right.  Give
 money and you go down in history in the documentation *wink*
 
 We will have a revised outline of the book by Monday evening from
 Carlos.  If you want to contribute material to the Blog -- let me
 know.  You have a channel to  voice your experience.
 
 More information is on the blog and will be updated as more progress
 is made. Again the blog is at, http://zodbdocs.blogspot.com/ -- please
 sign up and subscribe to the RSS feed.
 
 I am open for any feedback.  I desperately want to get the larger
 community support and feedback early as possible.  Please feel free to
 send comments, concerns, criticisms.
 
 cheers,
 alan runyan

Great idea Alan, but

So if you want to donate. Send us some money. You can use Paypal or send  
us a check.

I don't do Paypal and I couldn't send you a cheque if I wanted to. IBAN,  
please.
