I would like to have this book done by the end of June. I think it's important for LO's "image" to have a set of books for v4.x ASAP, even if the changes from v 3.x are small. (Others may have a different opinion, of course.)
The priority is updating it to include any changes necessary for v4.0 (and/or v4.1). However, improvements to the content are always worth considering and working on, and as a volunteer you are welcome and encouraged to do whatever you want. I would be interested to see your suggestions for changes. As long as Ch2 has something on sorting, with a reference to Ch13 for more info, I can't see a big problem. --Jean On 10/06/2013, at 14:04, "[email protected]" <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Tom > > Is there a particular deadline to get this book published? > > I would like to tackle it.
