In my mail about the GNOME Amazon store most of the comments were about the outdated GNOME books which I listed here: http://www.gnome.org/friends/amazon/ (We can change the entries so just let me know which books you think I should add and I'll add them.)
It seems that there is now just one reasonably up to date book which is the book of Andrew Krause. Maybe it's an idea to ask the authors of the older books to license their text under an open license such that the community can pick up the text and update it. We could put it for instance on wikibooks or host it on gnome.org. Furthermore the GNOME foundation could print it at lulu.com and try to sell the books. I think this could be very benificial to GNOME because having good books is important if you want to attract developers. What do you think of this idea?
