Makes sense to me - if you know enough to look for LD resources at the
manning.com/dwood/ URI, you've just self evaluated that you probably don't
need the book! :P
I agree - and have been speaking with Manning about this.  Unfortunately, I 
haven't made any progress yet.  I'll keep trying!

Thanks for the mail.  Perhaps I can use it as proof to Manning that people do 
want LD on their site.

Dave,

They have to understand that its sorta contradictory if they need to be 
convinced of this matter :-)
Oh, I see your point and have made it myself.  Unfortunately, economics seems 
to be dictating otherwise to them for right or wrong.

The only productive suggestion that has been made to me is to put up a parallel 
site for the book that includes LD.  Michael Hausenblas has offered the domain 
linkeddatadeveloper.com, which was his original site for the book but has 
fallen into disuse.  Of course, I would need to be willing to pay for the site 
and take the time to operate it.

Would the community find that a useful thing to do?  I am willing to go to the 
effort if I receive a good number of positive responses.

Regards,
Dave


A while back, there was a thread (on this list) about simple Linked Data deployment demonstration scenarios. I suggest you simply describe the book in a Turtle document then publish a link from one of the data spaces you control. You don't need more than that for this dog-fooding to kick in :-)
