Hi everyone -- Writing from Canada (just finished attending Canada on Rails, which was a big success), to let you know that my book "Ruby for Rails: Ruby techniques for Rails developers" has now been released in PDF by Manning Publications, with the paper publication to follow in the first week of May. You can order either or both at the Manning website. Manning has been having some website issues (they've been doing a whole huge migration), so please be patient as you step through the slightly rocky landscape :-) When you go to http://www.manning.com/black, you may be asked to click through to another site (secure.manning.com), which is their backup sales site during the transition. If so, just click through and there you'll be. And please drop by the Author Online forum at http://www.manning-sandbox.com/forum.jspa?forumID=200! David P.S. There are two sample chapters available for free. They're on the http://www.manning.com/black site (not yet on the other, I think), so check there first :-) -- David A. Black (dblack / wobblini.net) Ruby Power and Light, LLC (http://www.rubypowerandlight.com) "Ruby for Rails" PDF now on sale! http://www.manning.com/black Paper version coming in early May!
