Based on my experience writing the servlets book, I wouldn't expect a
"really good book on developing JSPs" anytime soon. Writing a good
book takes time (Java Servlet Programming took a full year), and even
once you're done writing it takes months to get the book printed and
shipped to stores (servlets took 3 agonizingly long months).
Now, since the ink is still drying on the JSP 1.0 specification
and 1.1 is coming along soon, I really think it'll be quite some time
until you see a *good* JSP book. You might see some trashy ones. I
personally would be wary of anything that ships before the end of the
year.
For the record, I have decided I will *not* write a JSP book. I
will cover some aspects of JSP in the next Java Servlet Programming
revision, but I won't be writing a whole new book. I'll write
articles, I'll teach classes, but I'll leave the arduous task of
writing a good and complete JSP book to someone else.
