help to anyone using iText

I didn't get a GO; I didn't get a NO GO.
I didn't get a 'GO, on condition that...'

The publisher is undecided.

We had a three hour phone call, but it comes
to this: the manuscript is good, but there
are some doubts if the book will sell well
enough...

I won't discuss further details on this list
(nor anywhere else for the moment), please do
not start a discussion here, instead I would
like to invite you to post a message on this
blog page: http://jroller.com/page/blowagie

I'm not asking for a complete list of arguments,
just post YES or NO, and add your first name,
your function (Java developer, .NET developer,...)
and your country/state. This last piece of
information is very important, because if we
continue with the 3/3 review the publisher wants
to have a better geographical distribution of
the reviewers.

I remember turning down quite some people who
asked me to review the book. This was because
the publisher told me he had enough people to
review the book. Now the list of reviewers is
open again ;-)

Thanks,
Bruno
