 How about cutting a new version with all the corrections? ;-)

Possibly after 1.3 comes out.  The 1.2 version is more collectible
anyway. ;-)

VERY collectible by the looks of it...

2010-07-01 Thread Steve Schmechel
So what do you get with the used book, when you purchase it for more than 10 
times the new book price?  Does it come packed in illegal drugs?

How about the new book someone is selling for £1,200.18 (plus £2.75 for 
delivery)?  And the seller has 179358 ratings 96% positive in the last 12 
months?

Either there is something really special in that deal, or I am charging much to 
little for my services.  Maybe, I'll demand a 1000% raise tomorrow - that 
should simply delight my employer.  :-)

If that doesn't work I'll auction my copy of Chris's book on eBay starting at 
$10,001.96 with *FREE* shipping.  That would make the Repoze book by far my 
best investment for 2010!
