As you duplicated the topic into this new thread, here's a copy of my answer I gave in the original thread: The core developers focus on improving and maintaining the manual (can be downloaded as a 400 page PDF). We keep having contact to publishers. But the manual (or a slightly modified version of it) typically isn't enough for them as they look out for "unique" content. If anybody out there is interested in authoring a book about qooxdoo (possibly a beginner's guide), please get in touch with me.
