Hi Paul, Earlier today I did some clean up work on the contents of downloads directory, reorganising the stable_release directory so that it contains all the OpenSceneGaph-version directories right back to 1.0, with each directory containing a source, binaries, documentation and data directories. Not all the releases had all the binaries available, nor had specific directories or docs so some of these directories as absent. I've made this change to try an keep everything related to a release in a single directory section, rather having all the docs, source, data and binaries all dispersed everywhere. While this new structure might be more logical for new users coming to the project, links to the old directories will now be broken. My thought was to find out what links exist and then create symbolic links to the new directories so that we don't need to maintain two versions of the data. Could you list what links you have in the existing book, both on the binaries, source and data front. It'd also be worth deciding what the new links should be in the revision of the book. I recall there was an earth dataset that you linked to original Quick Start Guide, but I don't believe this exists on the server since our migration of server a couple of years back. Could you list what you need and we then upload something appropriate to the server in the right place. Cheers, Robert.

Hi Robert -- Thanks for the cleanup, this is great organization. I recall being kind of strict about _not_ including links deeper than openscenegraph.org. The planet database, for example, is not in the text (but I know you recently posted one to demo the curl plugin and your DatabasePager mods for 2.8, so I could give a link to that if it's still there). Should I still cite www.openscenegraph.org as the main wiki page? I see it is only a redirector now. Anyhow, links deeper than www.openscenegraph.org do exist in the text, and they are as follows: Subscribing to the mail list: http://www.openscenegraph.org/mailman/listinfo/osg-users Professional Support: http://www.openscenegraph.org/osgwiki/pmwiki.php/Support/Support Mac OS X tips: http://www.openscenegraph.org/index.php?page=Tutorials.MacOSXTips So these are the ones I need. I'll update the first two URLs to the new addresses as I continue with my 2.8 revision. For the Mac tips link, does it still exist and is it still useful information for OSG 2.8? If not, I'll just cut it from my new revision. Last time we did an OS survey, Mac users accounted for 10% of our community, putting them third on the totem pole...

Hi Martin et al., IMHO, a receipe book would be very nice and would distribute the effort. Moreover, it would be a kind of sumarized mailing list for common problems, saving time for people searching the list. And if the receipes are on Trac, then anyone having a different solution for the same problem could fill the article by describing this alternate solution and benefits and drawbacks of each. I just suggest someone to be the maintainer of such an online/printable book, to avoid duplicates, to keep things up to date, to ask the community to regroup some similar articles or update them, to arrange articles hierarchically, etc. Just my 2.5 cents (Euro is getting quite expensive comparing to USD these days!)...

Re: [osg-users] OSG Books (was: RE: Number of contributors)
I'm encouraged to hear that this process works for Python. OSG already has a wiki, and although there is some documentation present, I'd hardly call it a community-written book as you appear to be describing. This is my fear with the OSG Recipes book -- If no one is willing to write and post documentation to the OSG wiki, will they be willing to write and submit material for a recipes book? We'll see; Bob and I are still intending to launch it in the near future.

Re: [osg-users] OSG Books (was: RE: Number of contributors)
Hi Umit -- I'd love to write the equivalent of the red book for OSG, and Bob and I have discussed this at length. We have a couple ideas. The most expensive route would be to sit down and write it, based off of our OSG course material. This would be very time-consuming. I can tell you from my experience writing other books that the return on investment is quite small. I'd want to see outside funding before I started on such a project. So far no one has stepped forward to fund it. (At some point in the future, I want to post a book proposal on my web site and a projected cost, kind of like an open proposal. Maybe someone will hire me to do it.) Another way to fund this might be by selling promotional opportunities to companies. For example, donate $1000 and get a screenshot from your product on the cover, donate $5000 and get 5 pages in the book about how your company is using OSG, etc. Another angle is an OSG Recipes -type of book created from contributed articles on OSG usage. This would distribute the workload over many people, and the reward would be a nice bullet point on your resume or CV. Bob and I announced this project at the last OSG BOF at SIGGRAPH, but we've been sidetracked from finalizing the details and therefore the project launch is delayed. Our OSG Reference Manuals have also been derailed (the last was for v2.2) but I hope we can hit the streets running with v2.8. This is a great resource, as it's wonderfully organized and presented and the PDF buys you hyperlinks to related material. However, revenue on these books is also low, and so far hasn't funded the code comment cleanup that I hoped it would. Revenue has barely covered production costs. To summarize, books are great resources, I love making them, and lots of people love them. But if we price them affordably (the QSG PDF is free, for example), producing them is almost a guaranteed money loser unless you have external funding.

Re: [osg-users] OSG Books (was: RE: Number of contributors)
I'll add another note about writing a red book for OSG... Writing this book would be a big project, and OSG evolves on a daily basis. My fear is that the red book would be outdated about the time it hits the bookstores. This is especially a concern given the recent OSG 3.0 discussion; spending (probably) a year documenting OSG 2.x doesn't make sense given we're already talking about a new direction for OSG. (I am updating the QSG for v2.8, however, as it is a short-term project that should be completed with a minimal investment.)
