David Baelde commented on LS-563: --------------------------------- Sorry to step in a little late... I like the idea of learning liquidsoap in public transportation, on the beach, etc. Our current documentation is not written with this in mind, it's more a reference than a tutorial. So it could be an interesting addition. A good idea would be to get a feeling of the market. Concretly, you should ask on the mailing list who would be willing to pay for a book, and what they would expect from it. I'm sure that some users can provide valuable advice regarding the publishing platform (paper vs electronic, which editor, self-publishing or not, etc). Also, what's your idea about the current documentation? Should the book benefit to it? I'd like to, but then the choice of TeX makes it difficult. > Book about Liquidsoap > --------------------- > > Key: LS-563 > URL: http://dev.sourcefabric.org/browse/LS-563 > Project: Liquidsoap > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Samuel Mimram > Priority: Major > > Recently, many efforts have been put into cleaning up the documentation.
