I meant that WSS/MOSS 2007 is a moving target, so any book written about it will be out of date. It's the unfortunate downside of current MS paradigm for platform software (no "stable" release like there was with WSS/SPS 2003, etc) of "release when marketing says to and add features later." Infra

Bill, Since sharepoint 2007 has been around since...well...2007, then I guess writing a book about it now actually makes sense from your first point. My gripe with MS is that the bleeding edge (infrastructure update) adds serious things, while dropping some minor things as an afterthought. Shoul

options: 1. Not write a book, it will be out of date BEFORE it's written (as a rule!) unless you're writing it about SPS 2001. (i kid!) 2. ALWAYS write about bleeding edge (RC or higher). If it's been released publicly that's what you cover without question. As a side note, perhaps on your webs
