Drew, The rumors could be true very soon. I'm working on a proposal for Effective Visual Basic .NET. I can't speak for/about other projects.

I have considered writing a book numerous times, but I feel I'm much better at on the spot real-world problem solving than coming up with topics to discuss. Also, I see James just mentioned keeping a blog and it's something else I've been meaning to setup, but just haven't had the time as of late (crunching on a project here @ work). I bought Radio a couple months ago to tinker with out of curiousity, so I definitely have the means. I'll see what I can do, but for now the list archives[1] will have to do. As for Effective .NET... I think I remember hearing that our DevelopMentor[2] friends are already working on such a title and I'm personally looking forward to it. Anyone from DM care to update on the status of any books that are pending? Need a reviewer??? ;) Thanx again, Drew [1] http://discuss.develop.com/archives/wa.exe?S2=dotnet&L=DOTNET&q=&s=&f=dm arsh @mimeo.com&a=&b= [2] http://www.develop.com/dm/developmentor_series.asp You can read messages from the DOTNET archive, unsubscribe from DOTNET, or subscribe to other DevelopMentor lists at http://discuss.develop.com.
