Why do we not start a Remedy Online Book wiki where everybody can add their comments/experiences and then compile the book from that? Might be a good start and all can comment or add when they like to...

I have always wanted to write a book that would help others. If this project ever gets rolling again I would like to be involved. I would also be interested in taking what we have so far and completing it if necessary.

Instead I focused the last few years on filling the Conference void, more time consuming than I expected (yes, I really was that naïve, otherwise I would never have attempted it. Fortunately we have a great team working on it, the first year was a rather steep learning curve). Original title for the book was: In the beginning, there were filters Both history and how to approach with the ARSystem versus traditional languages( which to me includes the silly world of java interpreters), In other words process oriented versus code block oriented. An object in Remedy [ARSystem] to me is a process not a sub-routine black box.

I've mentioned it to Doug a couple of times, but he got side-tracked as well. At the time we talked, ARS was still at Version 5.x. Things have gotten more complicated with the rise of 7.4 and ITSM\CMDB. I would think it should be two volumes. Volume 1, basic Remedy ARS. Volume 2, ITSM\CMDB. BMC has excellent documentation, but no one has consolidated it into a book form. I am currently composing a Remedy 101 book for my current job and it would not be hard to combine several documents into one if I had the time. When Dan and I first talked, several people were going to take different chapters. Thoughts I had for Chapters are: 1. Basic ARS 2. Thin Client 3. Development 4. Integration 5. Reporting 6. Doug Stuff (Doug wrote a Tips and Tricks "book" back 3-4 years ago) 6. Secrets that not everyone knows (ARSList could feed this) 7. Gotchas 8. etc. Time is the problem, but there is enough expertise out their that it could be done.
