Aside from use in the classroom, the "Practicing..." textbook is generating good discussions[1] with new ideas. Some of them might be 1.0 fodder, but some of them might fit in for 0.9.
I just pulled this together, moving the 0.9 content from the 'Instructor Guide' appendix, and pulling in one commented suggestion from 'The Lay of the Land'. http://teachingopensource.org/index.php/Textbook_0.9_planning_notes If you are starting to get some feedback, you can start dumping it there. If you need help eliciting feedback, let's talk about that. If you have ideas for the 0.9 release, there's the page to start putting them. I haven't put too much thought in to what 0.9 _could_ be. My editor mind wants to hit the voice really *hard* and get it all working together better; get better for-writer instructions from that experience; make sure we consider l10n. My FOSS writer mind wants to generalize it in a few key locations so some chapters (Foreward, The Lay of the Land, * the Code => * the Content) may be reusable for a non-code textbook. Thus I'm interested in discussing direction so some actual notes/tasks can outfall from those desires. - Karsten [1] http://opensource.com/education/10/4/can-professors-teach-open-source -- name: Karsten 'quaid' Wade, Sr. Community Gardener team: Red Hat Community Architecture uri: http://TheOpenSourceWay.org/wiki gpg: AD0E0C41
