Packt is... prolific. There has been a bit of a history of them overloading the books pages, to the exclusion or dominance of other publishers. Right now, for instance, searching for "packt" in AdvancedBooks shows 249 results; each one has two links, and searching the raw page for "[[" (to find all the links) shows 517 results. I haven't done a full check, but these figures make it look like there might be circa two dozen non-Packt entries on that page, and ten times that number of Packt entries. I'm concerned that the books pages are becoming nothing more than Packt listing pages. Thoughts?
