1. A development guide tells you how-to use many different FOSS
products with explanation on how they will work together to help
the reader create more free software.
That is a kind of manual. Any book that explains how to use
some software is a manual.
One kind of manual is a _refer
FWIW, in my first email back to Packt I requested that they consider
releasing this under a free license. Based on the response, I'm a little
unclear about what the license terms are but I suppose it will be cleared
up when we get the sample copies.
I suggest you press them on this
I was wondering if you have to encouraging anyone to buy a book about GNOME
from anywhere, and not just Amazon.

If it is going to be sold via Amazon, GNOME might want to look into
the Amazon non-profit affiliates program.
Please don't encourage anyone to buy from Amazon. See

It looks like this book is a sort of manual for GNOME 3. If so, what
is the license of the book? Is it free? The messages don't say.
Manuals should be free, and free software especially needs free

Hi all!
Am I too late? I'd love to read the book and review it :)
I have no coding experience but my current internship has given me the

Thank you.

Hi Karen!
It should be very interesting for me have the opportunity to review this
book (it's my work!!! :) ), so please, take me in consideration.

format, and let you have paper copies.
Let me know :)

Hi everyone,
Packt Publishing has recently put out a book on GNOME 3, which was written
by Mohammad Anwari. It would be great to have a review of the book on
gnome.org. As with all of their books about free software projects, Packt
