XMPP: The Definitive Guide – Rough Cuts edition

December 19, 2008, 7:51 am

It’s been an exciting time recently for the “XMPP: The Definitive Guide” book that Peter, Remko and I have been working on. Just over a week ago, Remko announced the availability of the book in the Rough Cuts scheme, where you can buy a PDF of the unfinished manuscript to read now, and receive the full version when it’s ready. Then, earlier this week, Peter posted about our submission of the full manuscript to O’Reilly, ready for technical review. Now it’s my turn with the good news: O’Reilly have updated the Rough Cut of the book with our submission, meaning that there is a complete, current book on the XMPP technologies available.

There will still be changes to the manuscript as a result of reviewers’ comments, but we think this is now a text we’re happy to have available. O’Reilly have feedback mechanisms for Rough Cuts, so if you read the book and anything is unclear (or, let us hope not, wrong) please help us make this book something that can guide current and future developers in their work with XMPP.
