Isn't that what http://wiki.apache.org/lucene-java/Resources is for? I like LIA as much as the next person, but if we do it for LIA2 then it opens the door for others (http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=Lucene&x=0&y=0 ) which will likely clutter the page quite a bit.

Maybe an alternative is to more prominently link the book section of the Resources page from the main site? I could see adding a "Books on Lucene" menu item and maybe even having a separate Wiki page for books if you want.

I'm also totally for any and all authors submitting "News Item" patches to the front page, so it would be totally appropriate to link it there (in fact, that will give you more prominence anyway). I just don't think we can imply that LIA2 is the "official book on Lucene".

Hello,

Would it be OK to put the book cover and link to LIA2 some place on lucene.apache.org/java, say below the navigation elements on the left side of the page? I/we (authors) think it makes sense to do this -- the book is for the Lucene community after all, but wanted to check with the rest of java-dev@ before doing something that could be seen as self-promotion.

Thanks,
Otis
