You're probably right. However, due to various NDAs and etc... I don't think a book can actually "go to press" until the product is officially released. That is why their is a 30-60 day delay before the books start hitting the shelves.
( Since Flex 2 betas were available for free on Labs, traditional NDA issues regarding betas may not apply; however since the publisher wants to be 'right' and betas are subject to change it is unlikely they'll go to press before a gold release of the software ) At 03:44 PM 7/14/2006, you wrote: >Jeffry Houser wrote: > > > >>I bet if Ben Forta were writing a book it'd be available already! ;) > > > > > > Based on what?
