Re: [announce] Wicket in Action e-book has been published!
Though we don't expect to become rich from this book, you *really* don't have any idea what personal sacrifices Eelco and I have given to make this book happen. If we get enough money to go on a weeks vacation with our wives that would be exceeding my expectations, and barely do justice to what we put them through. Our publisher also needs to earn money. The only way they can do that is to actually ask money for the books they publish. Without the publisher, Wicket in Action would not have been possible, and wouldn't have been nearly as good (MEAP subscribers can see the difference between an edited and non-edited book). If you would like to continue receive more books about your favorite Java projects, then don't hesitate and support the publisher and authors and *buy* their books.

Re: [announce] Wicket in Action e-book has been published!
I have been following the progress of the book via MEAP and it helped me a lot in my progress. Unfortunately, the place i work is leaning towards ADF (JSF), but i use Wicket for my spare time projects and love it so far. Thanks for the book and the project. about the a free pdf version: i must agree with Martijn Dashorst. The PDF is not that expensive and at least you get a PDF along with book. most other publishers don 't give you this.

Re: [announce] Wicket in Action e-book has been published!
Maybe my message caused misunderstandings. I was not complaining *that* the book costs money. I just was curious why doing it the old-style distribution way. Finally, Galileo-Computing also needs to make money to pay their book authors. Personally, I prefer reading a paper book over reading on the display (I haven't had the chance to read something on an e-book-reader), but having an always-up-to-date online-version which allows fast searching is incredible helpful for small problems and hence targets a different use-case. No, the wiki is not an adequate alternative. And yes, I have a rough idea about how much effort writing a book takes, because I wrote a 100-pages diploma thesis, an article in the German Java Magazin and we always have to maintain our help. No question, writing a book in a well understandable style is hard work. -- Cheers, Tom Thomas Singer wrote: Just curious: why don't you make the full e-book available for free and charge only for the paper version?

Re: [announce] Wicket in Action e-book has been published!
I enjoyed MEAP, and i like how slick and colorful ( ;=) ) it looks right now, i havent gone through the whole thing to know what are the major changes if any from MEAP. IMHO this is a great book, although i'd love to see a part ii (i dont know how soon that would be considering the effort it took to have this book out and all the other peripheral issues with it that i surely do understand =) ... in particular chapters related to DataProviders in an ellaborate manner would be cool). But this book is just awesome! Great Job Guys!! Thanks, Rick On Thu, Aug 14, 2008 at 10:20 AM, greeklinux [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Congratulation and thank you!
